Tina Majorino, aged 40, sported a relaxed look in a black tank top and shorts while walking in Thousand Oaks. This comes three decades after she portrayed Enola in the popular post-apocalyptic film.

“He enjoys engaging in this purely for the joy it brings, and every time I have teamed up with someone who shares this mindset, it’s always been a rewarding experience,” she mentioned.

She portrayed Deb in 2004 cult classic Napoleon Dynamite alongside Jon Heder as the titular character and Efren Ramirez as Pedro Sanchez – which marked her return to acting after a five year sabbatical.

‘I read Napoleon Dynamite and instantly I was like, ‘I don’t even care if I get it, I have to audition for this movie!,’ she said in a 2014 interview.

‘I think I was 17 – it was the first script that I read coming out of my sabbatical – and I was like, “this is hilarious.”‘

She added: ‘That film was a huge lesson for me in following my gut. It was pure magic and 100% reignited my love of filmmaking.’

Napoleon Dynamite tells the story of an awkward and alienated teenager who helps his new friend Pedro win the class presidency at their high school in Preston, Idaho.

Meanwhile, he deals with his bizarre family life back home.

The film, co-written by Jared and his wife Jerusha, was shot in 22 days on a production budget of $400,000, before grossing over $46 million worldwide and becoming a cult classic.
