Interview with Brendan Fraser and Screenwriter Samuel D. Hunter of Darren Aronofsky's The Whale (TIFF 2022)

Author: The Movie Podcast September 15, 2022 Duration: 36:34
On this SPECIAL EDITION of The Movie Podcast, we're joined by Actor BRENDAN FRASER and Screenwriter SAMUEL D. HUNTER of Darren Aronofsky's The Whale as part of The Movie Podcast's 2022 Toronto International Film Festival coverage. In our Round Table discussion with Brendan and Samuel, we‘re also joined by Rachel Ho of Exclaim! and Steve Norton of ScreenFish who have generously allowed us to include their questions. The Whale invites us to identify with a man in a precarious state of isolation that has been exacerbated by a potentially lethal mix of technology and our culture of body shaming. It stars Brendan Fraser, Sadie Sink, Hong Chau, Ty Simpkins, and Samantha Morton. The Whale will release theatrically by A24 and Elevation Pictures in December.  Listen to The Movie Podcast Interview now on all podcast feeds, YouTube, and TheMoviePodcast.ca Contact: hello@themoviepodcast.ca THE MOVIE PODCAST ON ET CANADA!

That’s the simple, winning formula behind The Movie Podcast.

Their enthusiasm is contagious, whether they’re breaking down a brand-new blockbuster, revisiting a classic, or sharing an insightful interview with someone from the industry. The podcast has earned its status as a Tomatometer-Approved source, meaning their reviews contribute to the critical scores on Rotten Tomatoes, a testament to their trusted perspective. New episodes, reviews, and interviews drop all throughout the week, ensuring there’s always something fresh to hear. It’s a consistent and engaging dive into the world of movies, where analysis is balanced with genuine camaraderie and a clear love for the art form.
