Chandler Fausette is an acting student on the Utah Satellite campus of the Academy of Cinema and Television. Chandler was discovered by Liz Knight, Director and owner of KnightStar Talent Mgmt., at an A.C.T. audition.

"Hatching Pete" -- Disney Channel Original Movie -- was Chandler's second Disney production to appear in. The movie stars Jason Dolley ("Cory in the House," "Minutemen") and Mitchel Musso ("Hannah Montana"). The story is about a shy high school student who's struggling to be noticed, especially by a special girl he's admired for so long. Then his best friend, Poole, must quietly take
a break from performing as the school's chicken mascot, and unbeknownst to the fans, he convinces Pete to stand in for him.

Once Pete dons the chicken suit, a whole new outgoing personality emerges, and it not only captivates the school but the whole town. Meanwhile Poole reaps the benefits of Pete's dynamic performances, including a new girlfriend. Now unassuming Pete must decide if he wants everyone to know who the funny guy truly is. A Salty Pictures production, "Hatching Pete" was written by Paul W. Cooper ("The Note"), Dan Fybel and Rich Rinaldi (Disney's "Emperor's New School") and is directed by
Stuart Gillard (Disney Channel's "Twitches Too"). Sheri Singer (Disney Channel's "Return to Halloweentown") is the executive producer and Randy Sutter ("The Circuit") is the producer.
