Thank you for listening to the FOLLOWING FILMS Podcast. Today we have two interviews for you. First I’m joined by Michael Showalter director of THE IDEA OF YOU and after the break I’m joined by Simon Cellan Jones director of ARTHUR THE KING.

Based on the acclaimed, contemporary love story of the same name, The Idea of You centers on Solène (Anne Hathaway), a 40-year-old single mom who begins an unexpected romance with 24-year-old Hayes Campbell (Nicholas Galitzine), the lead singer of August Moon, an incredibly popular boy band.

In ARTHUR THE KING, an unbreakable bond is forged between pro adventure racer Michael Light and a scrappy street dog companion dubbed Arthur over the course of a grueling 10-day, 435-mile racecourse. An inspiring story for the whole family based on true events, ARTHUR THE KING follows Light, desperate for one last chance to win, as he convinces a sponsor to back him and a team of athletes for the Adventure Racing World Championship in the Dominican Republic. Pushing the team to the outer limits of endurance and sacrifice, Arthur redefines what victory, loyalty, and friendship truly mean.

Thank you for listening to the FOLLOWING FILMS Podcast. Today, we have one news item, a weekend box office wrap-up, and an interview with Stefon Bristol, the director of the new film BREATHE. The film is a heart-pounding thriller set in the future with incredible performances from Jennifer Hudson, Milla Jovovich, Common, and Sam Worthington

After Earth is left uninhabitable due to lack of oxygen, a mother Maya (Hudson) and her daughter Zora (Wallis) are forced to live underground, with short trips to the surface only made possible by a coveted state-of-the-art oxygen suit made by Maya’s husband, Darius, whom she presumes to be dead. When a mysterious couple arrives claiming to know Darius and his fate, Maya tentatively agrees to let them into their bunker but these visitors are not who they claim to be ensuing in mother and daughter fighting for survival.

BREATHE is in theatres this Friday, April 26th. I hope you enjoy the rest of the show.
