My New Series "Best Foot Forward" on Apple TV+

July 15, 2022

Josh Sundquist

Paralympic ski racer and Cancer Survivor

Hello, friends!

It's surreal to announce the upcoming release of Best Foot Forward -- a new Apple TV+ series based on my childhood! I'm honored to have served as an executive producer, writer and actor on the show, which you can start watching on Friday, July 22.

Watch the official trailer!

Best Foot Forward is inspired by my childhood experiences and bestselling memoir Just Don't Fall. I'm especially proud to say that this series breaks new ground in disability representation and storytelling, both on camera and behind the scenes. Five of our writers had disabilities, and 20% of our cast and crew identified as disabled. That's unheard of in Hollywood.

A young boy in sitting at a school desk and raising his hand. He is wearing a collared shirt. There are a few girls seated in desks around him. — Like me when I transitioned from homeschool, our character "Josh" is super eager to partake in activities in public school.

There is a man wearing khakis and a polo shirt holding a prosthetic leg. They are in a prosthetist office. There is a pair of crutches leaning against the wall. There is a little boy sitting in the foreground talking to the man. — Look out for me as "Larry Sgroi" who is Josh's prosthetist in Episode 6!

This is a photo of a young boy and a man standing next to each other in front of lockers that say "Apple TV+ and Best Foot Forward." The little boy is wearing a prosthetist on his left leg and the man is missing his left leg. — And here I am at an Apple TV+ press event with the amazing Logan Marmino who plays "Josh" on the show!

There is a young boy running on a prosthetic leg on a soccer field. There are adults sitting on bleachers cheering him on! There's also a table in background with beverages to help the athletes. — Even though Logan is a baseball fanatic in real life, he did a fantastic job playing soccer in Episode 4!

So get your family and friends together to watch Best Foot Forward on Friday, July 22 on Apple TV+. DM me on Instagram with all of your show-related questions!

When I was 7 years old, I started a little something called Kids Newspaper, which reported on the local happenings of my neighborhood in Harrisonburg, Virginia. I sold copies for 5 cents door to door and it was heavily inspired by papers I'd heard of in big cities. I think it's safe to say that kid would have been blown away to know he'd get to ...

My Day with ASICS

I wouldn't call myself a serious sneakerhead or anything, but I've always loved the bold colors of ASICS shoes. The first Onitsuka Tiger I ever bought was fire engine red. Having one leg means that people will often look down at my foot when I walk by. Part of wearing a bright shoe, I think, is to show I don't have anything to hide and that I'm ...
