He&#8217;s got quite a few films coming out in the next few years and appears in TV series and commercials as well. &#8220;Desert Dawn&#8221; premieres this week, May 16th, in limited release. Chris has a small role in it. In the Fall, he begins work on &#8220;Nova,&#8221; which sounds very interesting. It&#8217;s a scifi thriller that he stars in, produces, etc. It was a successful short film, but now they&#8217;re turning it into a feature film. I can&#8217;t wait for that one. I hope you enjoy the interview!<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Interview with Chris Maher of &quot;Desert Dawn&quot; and other movies by Suzanne 4\/23\/25\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/wcc5WV8GwaY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- TVMEGBODY -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1056557952271337\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"8801203268\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\"><strong><img decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-65015 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/tvmeg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/desertdawnposter.png\" alt=\"Key art for the movie &quot;Desert Dawn&quot;\" width=\"173\" height=\"255\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tvmeg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/desertdawnposter.png 237w, https:\/\/tvmeg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/desertdawnposter-203x300.png 203w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 173px) 100vw, 173px\" \/>MORE INFO: <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/yQCpGW7bZyo?si=NDzwKbCCRQYvWemH\">Trailer<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Chris Maher<\/strong> is an American actor, producer, and writer from Iowa, known for his work in both film and television.
