Too Opinionated

🔎 THE SEARCH FOR THE TRUTH BEGINS!

Today on Too Opinionated, we welcome international actor and voice artist Tom Morton, who joins Netflix's highly anticipated Harlan Coben thriller I Will Find You as Detective Daniel Müller.

Based on Coben's bestselling novel, I Will Find You stars Sam Worthington, Britt Lower and Milo Ventimiglia in the story of David Burroughs, a man serving life for murdering his young son—a crime he insists he didn't commit. When evidence emerges suggesting his son may actually be alive, a desperate hunt for the truth begins.

🕵️ Tom plays Detective Daniel Müller, a character created specifically for the Netflix adaptation. The Geneva-based detective travels to Boston to assist the FBI investigation—but Müller's connection to the case may be deeper than it initially appears.

We talk with Tom about entering Harlan Coben's universe, creating a character who wasn't in the original novel, working within the mystery-thriller genre and becoming part of one of Netflix's biggest new series.

🎥 Tom also recently appeared alongside Demi Moore and Margaret Qualley in The Substance, while his short film Legend Has It is making the festival rounds.

🎮 His remarkable voice career includes Detroit: Become Human, Star Wars Outlaws, Humankind and more. He even provided security announcement voice work for the 2024 Paris Olympics.

From London and Paris to Hollywood, Netflix and the world of gaming, Tom has built a truly international career.

🎸🔥 CAMP ROCK IS BACK!

Actress, dancer, model and creator Ella Lucas joins Too Opinionated to talk about joining one of Disney's most iconic musical franchises as Danielle in Camp Rock 3!

More than 15 years after the original movies became Disney Channel phenomena, Joe, Kevin and Nick Jonas return as Connect 3, with the Jonas Brothers and Demi Lovato serving as executive producers.

Ella co-stars as Danielle alongside her real-life brother Orlando Lucas, who plays Daniel. We talk about sharing the Camp Rock experience with her brother, landing the role, working on a major Disney musical production and becoming part of a franchise an entire generation grew up loving.

💃 Ella's road to Camp Rock started long before the movie. Trained in hip-hop, jazz, contemporary and lyrical dance, she was part of Grvmnt, which earned Lilly Singh's Golden Buzzer on Canada's Got Talent. She later earned bronze at the World of Dance Finals with The Collective Dance Crew and trained and competed internationally in New Zealand.

🎥 Her screen credits include The Simone Biles Story: Courage to Soar, The J Team with JoJo Siwa, Prom Pact and Re: Uniting alongside Jesse L. Martin and Michelle Harrison.

📱 She's also built a massive social following, with 871K+ TikTok followers, 39M likes and 281K+ Instagram followers.

We talk Camp Rock 3, Danielle, the Jonas Brothers, Disney, dancing, acting, working with Orlando, social media, going viral and what's next for Ella!

🎸 A new generation has arrived at Camp Rock!

Legendary and endlessly controversial filmmaker Uwe Boll joins Too Opinionated to talk about his provocative new thriller Citizen Vigilante, starring Armie Hammer.

And controversy isn't surrounding this movie — controversy IS part of the story.

Citizen Vigilante tackles politically explosive subjects including crime, migration and vigilantism in Europe. Shot in Croatia, the film became an even bigger story when it was refused an age certification in Germany, shifting its initial release focus toward North America. Then Elon Musk promoted the film on X, dramatically expanding its reach and putting Boll right back in the middle of the cultural conversation.

And then there's Armie Hammer.

We get into why Boll cast Hammer, what he wanted from him as an actor, whether the controversy surrounding his star affected the film, and whether Boll believes audiences should separate an artist's work from the person making it.

But with Uwe Boll, Citizen Vigilante is only the beginning.

Over a filmmaking career spanning more than three decades, Boll has become one of cinema's most polarizing figures, directing films including House of the Dead, Alone in the Dark, BloodRayne, In the Name of the King, Postal, Rampage, Darfur, Assault on Wall Street and First Shift. After stepping away from directing in 2016, Boll eventually returned to filmmaking—and Citizen Vigilante has brought him renewed international attention.

We talk Citizen Vigilante, Armie Hammer, censorship versus classification, Germany's response, Elon Musk, political filmmaking, Hollywood, critics, cancel culture, controversy and why Uwe Boll has never been particularly interested in playing it safe.

And Boll apparently isn't finished with this world: after Citizen Vigilante, he said he wanted to pursue a sequel rather than move forward with his planned House of the Dead-related project.

🔥 Uwe Boll. Armie Hammer. Citizen Vigilante. No safe questions. No safe answers.

Today on Too Opinionated, we're joined by Cincinnati-based Americana/Country singer-songwriter Noah Smith to talk about his highly anticipated third studio album, No Strangers After All, arriving August 28.

Rooted in country, rock & roll, and heartland storytelling, No Strangers After All may be Noah's most personal statement yet—a record shaped by years on the road and the realization that music can turn complete strangers into friends, communities, and even family.

The album explores touring, songwriting, family, faith, resilience, failure, and finding home in unexpected places. For Noah, it's the culmination of more than a decade spent chasing songs and connecting with audiences one room at a time.

As he puts it: "Maybe after all these miles, all these shows, all these conversations, and all these songs—we're no strangers after all."

Noah has toured throughout the U.S., Canada, Mexico, and Europe, including multiple appearances at Denmark's Nashville Nights International Songwriter Festival. Along the way, he's shared stages with Ashley McBryde, Chris Janson, Lonestar, Joe Diffie, Aaron Lewis, Josh Turner, and The Steve Miller Band.

Back home, Noah created Crooner Circus, a songwriter-driven showcase that has featured hundreds of artists and grown into an annual multi-stage festival.

With new music releasing every month, Noah is entering an ambitious new chapter—bigger, louder and more alive, without losing the honest storytelling at the heart of his music.

We talk No Strangers After All, life on the road, songwriting, Nashville, failure, resilience, building community, and why success means more than filling a room.

Today on Too Opinionated, we're joined by acclaimed folk/pop singer-songwriter Caroline Cotter to talk about her brand-new single "Grounded In Love," arriving August 14, and the new music on the horizon.

Recorded in Nashville and co-produced by Caroline and Zack Berkman (Ron Pope, The District), "Grounded In Love" draws directly from Caroline's extraordinary life on the road. Having performed more than 1,000 shows across 46 states and 19 countries, Caroline knows what it's like to live without permanent roots. The song explores how we can still find stability, connection, love, and a sense of home wherever life takes us.

It's the latest chapter in a career built around deeply human songwriting. With her warm voice and honest lyrics, Caroline writes about connection, nostalgia, gratitude, loss, wanderlust, and the countless ways we experience life.

Following acclaimed albums Dreaming as I Do, Home on the River, and Gently as I Go, Caroline released A Quiet Song of Hope in June 2026 and is now moving into another exciting stretch of new music.

Her journey has been just as remarkable as her songs. Caroline has toured internationally, won the Maine Songwriters Association Contest, was a finalist at FreshGrass and the Rocky Mountain Folk Festival, and served as an artist-in-residence at the 2025 World Expo in Osaka, Japan. She also traveled through Italy on an "End of War Peace Tour" carrying a WWII-era Gibson guitar.

We talk new music, songwriting, Nashville, life on the road, finding home in unexpected places, and the experiences that continue shaping Caroline's music.
