Kyan Zielinski is Canadian-American and 18 years old. He was born on December 12, 2004 in Seattle, Washington. Kyan now lives in Las Vegas, Nevada with his younger sister Mikayla, and parents Tobi and Christie. Kyan has loved performing, and visually telling stories, since he was a toddler. His love for creative storytelling grew as years passed, leading Kyan to writing, casting, directing, and producing plays for his elementary school over three consecutive years. Kyan debuted in his first professional musical production at the age of nine at the 5th Avenue Theatre in Downtown Seattle. He continued working in musicals, commercials, and modeling for several years, until booking his first lead role in a short film at the age of eleven, which sparked Kyan's love for film and television. He was then cast in two independent feature films. Most notably, Kyan portrayed Liam McKenna in an Amazon Prime Original Series, The Dangerous Book for Boys, in which he starred as a series regular. It was on this project that he had the privilege of working with the show's brilliant co-creator team, Bryan Cranston and Greg Mottola. Following that, Kyan appeared on the Disney+ series Diary of a Future President, led by Gina Rodriguez. Kyan has a profound appreciation for the film and television industry and aspires to be a Film Director. Kyan passed the CHSPE (California High School Proficiency Exam) in May 2021, so he now works as legal 18. In Kyan's spare time, he enjoys spending time with his family and friends, photography and videography, vlogging for his YouTube Channel (Kyan Zielinski Vlogs), going to the cinema, playing video games, and traveling.

The Search Form


About the Movie Section

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).

Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.

Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)

While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:

  • I added "runners up" to Top 10 lists, treating them as ties where applicable and numbering them accordingly at the bottom of each list.
  • Regarding those polls wherein "franchise" movies were submitted as one project until BFI's policy changed to regard them separately, I treated them as ties and renumbered the affected lists accordingly (e.g. the Godfather films).

Regarding profile removals and data corrections:

  • If you would like your profile removed from this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's gone from their site, it should soon be gone from this site.
  • If you would like to correct movie data on this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's corrected on their site, it should soon be corrected on this site.
  • For additional corrections and profile removals, please e-mail The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).

Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
