Edward Norton Talks Fight Club, Motherless Brooklyn & More

We are incredibly humbled to welcome Edward Norton on the show to discuss his new film Motherless Brooklyn (starring Bruce Willis, Willem Dafoe, Alec Baldwin). He also gets into some sweet stories from the set of Fight Club and David Fincher's meticulous process, we learn a bit about that iconic twist at the end of Primal Fear, and he discusses the process of being a writer/director/actor.

This past week, the guys all had some amazing trips, and interviews to share. Jake was able to visit The Stanley Hotel, the inspiration behind Stephen King's The Shining, for the upcoming release of Doctor Sleep (starring Ewan McGregor, Rebecca Ferguson). Sean interviewed Bruce Springsteen...at his house, and toured his studio. We missed Kevin last week, but he's back with stories of several movie locations he was able to visit during his trip through China and Japan!

The guys react to the latest trailer for Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, and give their takes on whether or not they feel the hype for the ending of the Skywalker Saga. The contention between some of cinema's best, Martin Scorsese and Francis Ford Coppola, and tentpole superhero films continues, and we now have a statement from Disney CEO himself, Bob Iger. Things are getting spicy, and we must dive right in.

For this week's BlendGame, we're celebrating the long, storied career of John Carpenter with #JohnCarpenterBlend. Next week, we're rebooting our discussion on Arnold Schwarzenegger, now looking at our FAVORITE films, with #ArnoldBlend.
