  • Andor’: Editor John Gilroy Talks About Changing ‘Rogue One’ and Building ‘Andor’ From the Ground Up with His Brother [The Rogue Ones Podcast]

    In the sixth episode of The Rogue Ones, our hosts break down their thoughts on episode eight, entitled “Narkina 5,” which dropped on Disney+ this week. After the discussion, editor John Gilroy (“Rogue One: A Star Wars Story,” “Nightcrawler,” “Michael Clayton”) joins the podcast to talk about being brought on as a “fixer” for “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story” with his brother and Andor showrunner, Tony Gilroy, and his experience editing “Andor” for Disney+.

    During the interview, John Gilroy discussed being brought in to re-cut “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story” with his brother. Many a rumor has been reported about that time, some saying the Gilroys completely re-cut the movie, others saying director Gareth Edwards still had control. Gilroy was hesitant to go into detail on the experience but was happy to comment on how much was changed.

    “We were REALLY changing things,” Gilroy said with a laugh. “I don’t know how much I’m supposed to say about that, but it was really changing things and using all of the tricks in your bag as an editor to make scenes work. However, you need to make them work, you make them work.”

  • Screenwriter Krysty Wilson-Cairns Talks About The 'Good Nurse' & Collaborating with Sam Mendes, Edgar Wright & More [The Fourth Wall]

    On this week's episode of The Fourth Wall podcast, Krysty Wilson-Cairns joins us to discuss her new Netflix film, "The Good Nurse." Directed by Tobias Lindholm ("A Highjacking," "A War"), centers on a  nurse (Academy Award-winner Jessica Chastain) who becomes uspicious that her colleague (Academy Award-winner Eddie Redmayne) is responsible for a series of mysterious patient deaths. Risking her own life to uncover the truth, she is at the center of an anxious, gripping thriller based on true events.

    Adapted by Wilson-Cairns, she is known for the Sam Mendes-directed 2019 war film "1917," which earned her her first Academy Award nomination for Best Original Screenplay. Wilson-Cairns began writing for "Penny Dreadful," and has since written "Last Night in Soho" with Edgar Wright and is currently collaborating with Taika Waititi on an untitled "Star Wars" movie. But as of this moment, she has "The Good Nurse" opening on Netflix this week, so she stopped by on the podcast to talk all about this moral thriller.

  • ‘Halloween Ends’: Jamie Lee Curtis’ Last Stand Against Evil Is Ruined By Some Dude Named Corey [The Playlist Podcast]

    We said we wouldn’t do it. When we sat down and watched the entire “Halloween” franchise (12 films!) in a week to rank them before “Halloween Ends,” we said we didn’t need to discuss the finale because it was probably going to be just fine and exactly what we expected would happen. Laurie kills Michael. Evil dies tonight! You know the drill. Well, David Gordon Green zigged when we thought he would zag and turned in what we think might be one of the worst “Halloween” films of all time. This warrants a discussion.
