“Sark walked in to audition and we were like, ‘That’s him!’ ” said Dillingham. “He was so cute and sweet.”

“And genuine,” Fritz added. “There was nobody else that even came close.”​​

Asadourian is joined by an exciting cast. Cecil’s parents are played by Jenna von Oy, known for her role as Six LeMeure on the NBC sitcom “Blossom,” and Jason London of Richard Linklater’s 1993 classic “Dazed and Confused.” Mike Keith, aka the “Voice of the Tennessee Titans,” plays the school’s gym teacher.

"Sark Asadourian looks great in the title role, and is the perfect personification of what this film is about, bringing us a delightful and lovable portrayal of Cecil, and making this a film that we can truly get excited about. It's not hard to believe in the journey of his character based upon the natural ease and likeability of his performance."
