[@zanemcclarnon9556]

Zahn,Im so proud of you. Proud to be your twin brother and proud to be your #1 fan

[@dawnhenderson9461]

Zahn, you are my favorite actor. In Longmire when Walt came on the Rez, you socked him a good one! That was my favorite scene.❤😊❤

[@sam-jf5po]

Love watching any program Zahn is in!!!! He is fabulous!

[@srigging]

So glad to see Zahn receiving recognition. Well deserved. We love to watch him in Dark Winds, Longmire & many others. ❤ There ARE many many Native American people deserving of celebration of their accomplishments. A month of appreciation is a good start.

[@jenniferrutter9364]

Wonderful, talanted , gentle and sweet man

[@amartinez1285]

Thanks for this! Zahn does the work, and he's a wonderful human being.

[@lorriedoss9383]

He true is! He is so humble also!

[@rhythmannblues1182]

I have loved Zahn since Dr Quinn. He is an amazing actor and awesome person for conquering addiction. I will continue to rally for him and his heritage. Awesome interview!

[@MelanieBeaty-dg2vk]

CANT WAIT for DRK WINDS to come back on!! Why the long break!

[@BretDebelak-sh1rb]

Dark Winds is an awesome show.

[@jansean2497]

Zahn Mclarnon is one of the most watchable actors out there. I’ve been reading the Hillerman novels for decades, so I love the Dark Winds series, but I’d like to see him cast in other leading roles in any show or movie. Plus nine more seasons of Dark Winds Please!

[@sayresrudy2644]

recommendations of where to start the novels please?

[@valarieallen2548]

@@sayresrudy2644 at the beginning, there is a lot of history you miss if you skip around

[@valarieallen2548]

Such a versatile actor! Finally receiving the roles he deserves. I've watched him throughout his entire career. Hope to see a lot more!! Great role model for the youth of today on how to persevere in your chosen craft and finally receive the accolades.

[@cathyrussell9794]

Amazing actor

[@stacey65noah84]

First time I truly noticed Zahn McLarnon was West World. I was mesmerized. What ever he is in, I’m there!!!

[@CindyVachon-o3i]

I loved this series on Netflix. And Zahn is fabulous! I watched Longmire and when I saw he was the main character on this show, I had to see it.

[@sayresrudy2644]

so utterly in love with this amazing man

[@ninaedison3008]

First, it was Adam Beach, now he's caught my eye! Its not just their good looks but their acting and all they bring to the screen through the characters they portray in the Indigenous world. I love him in Dark Winds. I was first introduced to Tony Hillerman novels in college in my English courses and thank my instructor. I enjoy all his books.I haven't missed an episode and pray another season is in the works! ❤ I admire how he speaks of sobriety and the struggles of addiction because I can relate. Last month, I celebrated 17 years clean! 👊🏾 Zahn, you are my inspiration. Keep rockin!

[@leeleeturn]

Wow! Congrats!!🎉 3 years and counting here!

[@marionwelsh7737]

After having watched Dark Winds - how he does not have an Emmy yet is beyond me. Phenomenal actor!

[@Thebestintheworld17777]

Hes so handsome ❤

[@mgag3464]

Wow. First interview of Zahn seen. Congrats to you for your multi-talented legacy & productions. Keep inspiring us to love what we do & to persevere. Same to the interviewer. IJN. ❣️🤴🛐

[@Rwils-ek1tq]

I remember Zahn from Central High School in Omaha. He was the same kind and gentle kid when he was a teenager as he is now! So proud!

[@jeanorrico9877]

Excellent interview.

[@bsmith5304]

He's an awesome actor, he was my neighbor and we became close friends, I'm so in aww how is has developed over the years in his craft and now the lead in a really great TV show. He has matured into a wonderful man and humanbeing. Great interview. 😊😊❤

[@tamarabroussard1908]

It is nice to see a nice guy being the lead actor.

[@susanfortwendel6846]

Love Dark Winds. Most of all I enjoy good actors telling a good story. If the story is interesting, I will watch with subtitles.

[@bonniedawe2009]

Loved him in Longmire. He was perfect in that character.

[@benjaminquint5275]

Reservation Dogs is my favorite show in ages! Keep up the amazing work!! Much love from San Diego.

[@SteelStringGunSlinger]

Everything zahn had been in has been an absolute home run. Great actor

[@1hayes1]

Not to objectify a fine actor, but his chest deserves it's own star on the Hollywood walk of fame.

[@jenniferrutter9364]

Brilliant

[@LaurieLeggio]

Love Zahn's acting & world philosophy. Loved his interview in the Cowboys & Indian's magazine

[@Terri-lb1zh]

We love every series he is in....especially loving American history dramas!

[@maryhahn7595]

A very amazing actor thank you for sharing keep the good vibes and acting coming

[@GreenviewStudioGallery]

I loved hearing his voice as "Olrox" in Castlevania "Nocture" lol, just awesome.

[@cyberlioness]

loved Reservation Dogs. Great interview

[@suezq57]

He’s so versatile!! Dr Sleep is cult level and Zahn was so good. I love every thing he’s done. Dark Winds Season 3 will be fire!!

[@lorriedoss9383]

I will agree this is very important!

[@claradavis5911]

Reservation Dogs love it, I definitely found Dark Winds a little scary 😨 but very interesting especially when I've been listening to Native American history about the Navajo traditions, culture, and beliefs. However, Mr. Zahn please stay strong, pray because it's the greatest power on earth, and we all have up's and downs in our life as a old saying go's in some cultures WE FALL DOWN BUT WE GET UP it's important that we don't STAY DOWN, always if you can stay true, and positive to yourself and the ones you love family ❤ 😊Godbless

[@Fiawordweaver]

I JUST LOVE THE MOVIES AND SERIES THAT THE AMERICAN AND CANADIAN INDIGENOUS PEOPLE ARE INVOLVED IN. ❤ L O V E ❤ PLEASE MAKE MORE🤗

[@pesha600]

Thank goodness there's valways hope.

[@shannon9677]

❤❤❤❤❤

[@petrstanovsky7648]

Sad thing about insulting Native Americans is that most people these days are actually liking them, but their reasons can be based on that stereotypes. I understand, it's just sad how good intends do bad results.

[@camilleleidigh5598]

Thankyou for sobriety. ❤

[@KimberlyStone-w1h]

I've always loved DeNero. But having watched almost all of his movies, I see him more than his characters. McClarnon's characters are nothing alike, and I feel that is the hallmark of a great actor. I love Dark Winds, so I binge watched Reservation Dogs last weekend and nearly died laughing.. he was nothing like Mathias or Joe.

[@michaelnelson900]

At least he is on longmire

[@TexasMom1776]

I work with a cousin of his

[@vanessahuman7607]

But we like you in buckskins

[@kathyanderson1341]

Poor fools

[@johnsabaku2257]

He is a trope. It's not autentic. He's Lakota not Dineh

[@YOUNOTCOOKING]

whats the movie/show at 1:02? I've seen clips of it knocking about but no idea what it belongs to. Is it a flashback scene from Reservation Dogs or something? I've scanned through his filmography but can't seem to find it.

[@solemn2854]

I beleive its a TV series called "The Son" a western TV show with 2 seasons released in 2017

[@kjulia1122]

Thank you!
