This week's Empire Podcast sees the long-awaited return of one of our favourite guests, the wonderful British actor Will Poulter, who talks to Chris Hewitt about his role in the new movie, Death Of A Unicorn, playing a prize A-hole, and impromptu tongue-twisters. [20:38 - 33:28 approx]Another returning guest joins us this week, as the delightful Amber Midthunder sits down on Zoom with Amon Warmann to dive deep into her role in the new action comedy Novocaine. That interview does contain some spoilers, so tread carefully! [1:07:21 - 1:23:34 approx] Either side of those, Chris is joined in the podbooth by James Dyer and, for the first time in forever, Ben Travis as they discuss the videogames they'd like to see adapted into movies, review Death Of A Unicorn, Holland, Last Swim and The Most Precious Of Cargoes, and go deep on tons of movie news, including the casting of The Beatles, the Once Upon A Time In Hollywood sequel, and the sad news of the death of the great Val Kilmer.

0:24.0 | What's on TV? The answer is a lot. There's never been more choice ever what to put on the box with an abundance of great new shows, but you can miss them all if you don't know where to look. And that's where the pilot TV podcast comes in, your essential guide to every show that matters. Each week, we sift through the very best in Prestige TV to help you decide what's worth spending your time on and what isn't. So join me, James Dyer, as well as venerable TV critics, Boyd Hilton and Kay Ribeiro, |

0:33.8 | The Empire podcast is brought to you in association with National Rail. |
0:39.3 | Tweets, posts, reels, WhatsApp, voice notes, TikToks. People today are more connected than they've ever been, but no matter how many different ways exist to communicate via your phone, |
0:43.1 | there's nothing quite like doing it face to face. Take this podcast, for example. Could we |
0:47.6 | dial in from our respective homes and bring you all this film-related fun remotely pandemic style? |
0:52.1 | Of course we could. But why would we pass up the opportunity to |
0:54.8 | bang on about the MCU and wax lyrical about June Messiah in the flesh, especially when our |
1:00.2 | colleagues of such lethal cunning are just a train ride away? But that's not all trains are good for. |
1:04.7 | After all, if Jack Reacher can explore the furthest corners of America with nothing but a folding |

1:14.5 | Perhaps you've always wanted to visit some of the great British landmarks, or maybe you're |
1:17.9 | itching to take a tour of some of the nation's iconic movie locations. |
1:21.9 | Wander the halls of Thor's Asgard, or, as it's known on Earth, Durham Cathedral, take a trip to the planet Takadana to reenact the fight with Kylo Ren in the forest of Dean, |
1:31.2 | or even make your own Batcave in the gardens of Nedworth House, |
1:34.1 | as Tim Burton did in 1989's Batman. |
1:36.6 | The nation is your cinematic playground, so what are you waiting for? |

1:43.6 | Nothing beats being there. |
1:58.8 | On the Empire podcast this week, it's another bumper-sized jam-packed edition with more guests than that time. Christopher guest, his brother Nicholas guest, and their good friend Lance guest, star of the last starfighter, went to a screening of the guest at the guest house Paradiso. |
