Myles Wyatt Clohessy is an up-and-coming actor living in NYC, and we got the chance to talk with him about his acting career, traveling, being big on Instagram and more! He recently starred in the indie hit, Last Ferry, and has a number of exciting projects on the horizon. He is also a former semi-pro soccer player, was recently married last year, and he also has his own TV production company. 

1. Congrats on the release of your latest film, Last Ferry. What was your experience like filming on the iconic Fire Island? What film/tv projects are next for you?

• Thank you! I had the greatest experience ever on Fire Island. Believe it or not, it was actually my first time ever on the Island so I didn't know what to expect. And I ended up spending over 3 weeks shooting there and it was beyond words beautiful. It was preseason so it actually gets a little (sometimes very) chilly out there, especially at night which we ended up shooting a lot of scenes during, but the landscape is utterly outstanding. On my off-days or in between scenes I would honestly just marvel at the natural beauty and I explored the island quite a bit. There’s an abundance of natural beauty, hiking trails, and friendly deer so I honestly had the time of my life, definitely an experience I'll never forget. My next project is actually my first series regular role. It's a new medieval mini-series being shot in Spain, Morocco, and Italy this year and I'll be in 8 of the episodes. I will be starring some pretty big names so I'm really excited about that next venture. 

2. Speaking of islands, where have been your favorite places to travel? Any destination you haven't been that you're dying to go to?

• Honestly, my favorite place thus far has been the Amalfi Coast and the Island of Capri! I just went this past summer for my Honeymoon and it was so incredible. The people, the food, and the views were unbeatable. I remember just hiking to this cafe at the top of Positano and just looking out across the mountains and the Mediterranean and thinking life couldn't get much better than this. I would recommend to anyone! I'm currently dying to go to Greece. It looks incredible, especially the coastline, so maybe a 2020 adventure!

3. What is your favorite neighborhood in New York City? Do you have any go-to restaurants, coffee shops or bars?

• I'd have to say my favorite neighborhood in the city is tied between the Upper East Side where I live because it's full of just so many beautiful buildings, especially close to the park. I think it's the closest thing to any European city like Paris in terms of residential architecture and of course, the best park in the world, Central Park, is right there so it kind of is really just so, so pretty. And then there's the West Village with its cobbled streets, cute cafes and hidden restaurants, and I make a trip down there every week to go out or just walk around. My go-to coffee spot is JAVA GIRL which is this uber-cute coffee shop in my neighborhood on the Upper East Side. It's very bohemian, full of character, French and African music, decorates for every holiday, and best of all, the workers know my order by heart now so it just feels really cozy and warm there. Love doing writing there. 

4. How long have you lived in NYC and how does the city compare to other places you've lived?

• I've lived in NYC for almost 2 years now full time. However, my parents have had an apartment in Chelsea since the 90's so I've been in and out of NYC my whole life. I don't think there's any city anywhere in the world that compares to NYC. It's just the most unique, craziest, and most wonderful city in the world in my opinion. 

5. What has been your favorite city or country you've ever filmed?

• I'm set to shoot this show in Madrid this spring so I can’t imagine I'll have shot anywhere as cool and as full of history as when I shoot in Madrid, so I'm really looking forward to it. 

6. How has having a massive social media following affected your life and career?

• I think it's really only affected my personal life and career positively. It's helped me reach out to people in and out of the business that I would have never been able to connect with before and helped me create some really amazing business ventures internationally. Like my collaboration with Curious Hotels, a chain of really nice boutique hotels around Europe that I work with as a brand ambassador and promotional model, and none of that would have been possible without social media. 

7. If you could live anywhere in NYC, where would you live? What about in the world?

• It would either be in a townhouse/brownstone in the West Village or one of the many beautiful mansions on the Upper East Side...I have a long way to go before I can do that... but I'm working on it!
