Summary

This week's Empire Podcast sees Chris Hewitt sit down on Zoom with Mr. Fitz, aka Paul Feig, the dapper and debonair director of Bridesmaids, Spy, The Heat and new action-comedy Jackpot!, to talk about working with Awkwafina and John Cena, the difficulties of getting an original movie off the ground, and whether Feig could murder somebody for money. (FYI, Feig's microphone wasn't working as it should for the first six or seven minutes of this interview) [23:34 - 42:47 approx] Then, we bring you an extended excerpt from our exclusive Empire VIP Club Q&A with Coraline director Henry Selick and The Other Mother herself, star Teri Hatcher, as that film celebrates its 15th anniversary with a timely re-release. [1:04:32 - 1:19:27 approx] Then, in the podbooth, Chris is joined by Helen O'Hara, Nick de Semlyen, and Alex Godfrey for a jam-packed episode in which they discuss their favourite creatures from the Alien movies, discuss the week's movie news including D23 announcements galore, and review Alien: Romulus, Trap, and Jackpot! Oh, and Alex comes up with a new catchphrase. You'll know it when you hear it. Enjoy.
