You know him as Embry Call, the shape-shifting native American from the Twilight franchise. Kiowa Gordon is also a star of DA MAN‘s ‘Young Hollywood’ channel.
It’s not often that a young guy with no acting experience gets approached in church by a middle-aged married woman about becoming a part of one of the biggest blockbuster movie franchises in history. But that’s what happened to Kiowa Gordon one day at his Arizona church a couple years back.
