Popcorn Podcast is thrilled to welcome Oscar-winning writer and director of The Father Florian Zeller back to discuss his new film, The Son. In a fascinating chat, Zeller reveals what compels him to tell stories often treated as taboo and how challenging it is to deliver a cinematic adaptation of another of his acclaimed plays. He also shares wonderful (and hilarious) anecdotes about working with screen greats Anthony Hopkins and Hugh Jackman, as well as what led him to cast Australian actor Zen McGrath in such a pivotal role and the importance of having open discussions about mental health. We hope you enjoy this very special interview episode of Popcorn Podcast.
