In 2018, Kawennáhere had the honour of meeting Taika Waititi at the Toronto International Film Festival. "GUYS! I met my hero at TIFF," she gushed on Instagram. "I 100% geeked out but tried my hardest to keep it inside (it didn't really work) 😵🤓🤩." Fast-forward three years later, and the two are now working together on Reservation Dogs. Funny how life works, huh?
