'Casino Royal', 'The Legend of Zorro' director Martin Campbell on how to shoot big budget action films and his latest 'Cleaner’


Listen Later

We had the distinct privilege of sitting down with the legendary director Martin Campbell for an exclusive, in-depth conversation about his remarkable career.


Martin Campbell's filmography speaks for itself. He's the director who not only breathed new life into the James Bond franchise with the explosive "Golden Eye," but also delivered the critically acclaimed and emotionally resonant "Casino Royale," introducing Daniel Craig as 007. He gave us the thrilling "The Mask of Zorro," the politically charged "Edge of Darkness," the intense "Vertical Limit," and the action-packed "Green Lantern." He's a master of suspense, a visual storyteller of the highest caliber, and a director who consistently delivers compelling cinema.


And, of course, we're thrilled to discuss his latest film, the taut thriller "Cleaner," which promises to keep audiences on the edge of their seats. This film boasts an incredible cast, featuring performances from the likes of…Daisy Ridley, Taz Skylar and Clive Owen.


In our interview, we delve into

  • his creative process
  • his experiences working with these talented actors and on some of the biggest franchises in film history
  • and the unique challenges of bringing his latest vision 'Cleaner' to the screen.
