Everyone has their own calling into the world that awaits them. People pave their own paths and destiny’s battle between fate and free will becomes everlasting.One Pieceis a world so vast that the opportunity it presents for the growth of people involved is beyond grand. The manga, the anime, and even the live-action adaptation have their own set of people who bring these projects to life with Eiichiro Oda at the heart of it all.

Taz Skylar is one of the people who found their lives turning around in a matter of moments as they signed onto theOne Piecelive-action project. Ever since he adorned the role of Sanji, his reputation has been one to be kept on a mantle. However, there would always be something that inspired even the biggest of actors.

While speaking with theBritish Independent Film Awards,Taz Skylaropened up about which film helped him grow as an actor. Everyone has that one movie that pushes them past their limits in a positive manner. For theOne Piecestar, it wasSean Astin’sRudythat changed everything for him.
You only need to get on the pitch for ten seconds for it to count.

He talked about how the film was an impactful masterpiece. Based on the life of Daniel ‘Rudy’ Ruettiger, the film follows a footballer whose only dream was to go play for and study at Notre Dame.

The film was a direct tell of what it means to give everything for one’s dreams and passions and get what you deserve in return. Life will always move on and things won’t turn out the way you want them to until you move with it. Even if it is just for moments, the result becomes eternal.
