This week on the podcast, we’re joined by Brenton Thwaites to discuss his latest film, We Bury the Dead, a haunting and emotionally driven story about loss, survival, and what it means to keep going when everything familiar has fallen away.Thwaites opens up about the emotional and physical demands of the role, how the film blends genre tension with deeply human storytelling, and what drew him to a project rooted in grief and resilience. We also talk about his career evolution, the kinds of roles he’s pursuing now, and how We Bury the Dead represents a more grounded, introspective chapter in his work.It’s an honest conversation about craft, vulnerability, and choosing stories that stay with you long after the credits roll.
