This week’s Empire Podcast has the holy trinity of Ds — Dinosaurs, Davids, and Dolls. Yes, a very special, star-studded edition of your favourite movie pod sees our intrepid interviewing adventurer Chris Hewitt sits down for a pre-lunch chat about dinosaurs and sandwiches with Jurassic World Rebirth stars Mahershala Ali and Rupert Friend, [25:28 — 36:36 approx.] while friend of the pod Mike Muncer goes deep with the legendary David Cronenberg on his most personal film yet, The Shrouds. [1:02:07 – 1:18:07 approx.] Oh, and in case you’re wondering where the doll comes into the equation, there’s also an excerpt from our epic spoiler special chat with M3GAN 2.0 director Gerard Johnstone (the full thing will be available to spoiler special subscribers next week). [1:44:33 — 1:56:03 approx.]
Either side of that little lot, Chris is joined in the podbooth by Helen O’Hara, James Dyer, and Dan Jolin as they celebrate Independence Day by talking about the most evil British movie villains. Plus, they chat about the week’s movie news, including The Running Man and Project Hail Mary trailers; pay tribute to the slow, great Lalo Schifrin (this episode was, it is worth noting, recorded before the sorrowful news broke of Michael Madsen‘s death); and review The Shrouds, Jurassic World Rebirth, and Heads Of State. Enjoy!
You can listen to this week’s episode (which, if you’re counting, is #675) on the pod app of your choice. And if you want more of The Empire Film Podcast, but LIVE and IN PERSON, then boy do we have just the thing for you. On Saturday 13 September at 7pm, Team Empire will be coming at you live from Kings Place for an evening of movie news, reviews, nonsense, and maybe a special guest or two as part of this year’s London Podcast Festival. Head on over to Kings Place’s website to secure your ticket now. We’ll see you there!
