DESCRIPTION: This week we are joined by the truly legendary make-up artist/filmmaker Kevin Yagher, who was responsible for the make-up effects for “Mission: Impossible 2” including all those masks! Yagher shows off his Tom Cruise mask, including the flowing hair which had to be inserted one-by-one! We also get some great Cruise stories and find out how excited Dougray Scott was to start filming “X-Men” next (whoops). And we get into Yagher’s work on the “Bill & Ted” series, including the new movie! Released August 7th, 2020.

SHOW NOTES: Check out more of Kevin Yagher’s amazing work on his website.
