Dominic Sessa has officially transformed into the late Anthony Bourdain for A24's highly anticipated biopic - but the actor had a few roles under his belt before being cast as the famed chef. "I wasn't really a big movie person, and I didn't really watch TV," Sessa admitted in a November 2025 interview. "I didn't really have a strong relationship with movies, other than just the stuff that my dad would show me." How did he make a career in acting? It was a total accident.
