We've another double interview episode of the Empire Podcast for you this week, folks. First up, Hugh Grant returns to the pod for an in-depth chat with Evolution Of Horror host and friend of Empire Mike Muncer about his new movie, Heretic, and whether or not he's into horror [24:54 — 38:02 approx]. The, our very own man who is super, Chris Hewitt, has a lovely chat about Christopher Reeve with Ian Bonhote and Peter Ettedgui, directors of a new documentary about the late Superman star, Super/Man: The Christopher Reeve Story [58:32 - 1:17:42 approx].
Either side of those, Chris is joined in the podbooth by Helen O'Hara and James Dyer for a fun episode in which this week's listener question sees the team discussing their favourite micro-budget movies; in which a busy week for movie news sees Steven Knight's departure from the latest Star Wars movie, exciting Alien and Predator developments, Amber Midthunder and Alan Ritchson's Painter, Spider-Man 4's release date announcement, and some non-movie Marvel news all on the agenda; and in which the team review a whole bunch of movies, including our guests' efforts, Sean Baker's Anora, and Clint Eastwood's Juror #2. As ever, please do enjoy.
