Popcorn Podcast

Our guest today is the multi-talented actor, musician and visual artist Aidan Langford who stars in new Netflix comedy, Roommates. When hopeful, naive college freshman, Devon, asks the cool and confident Celeste to be her roommate, a blossoming friendship spirals into a war of passive aggression. Aidan plays Alex and it follows his changing relationship with his sister Devon as she starts college, leading to his unexpected coming out journey while balancing Devon and her college roommate Celestes’ complicated friendship. In our chat, Aidan talks honestly about bringing authenticity to his closeted character and coming out journey, the blossoming friendship he forged with co-stars Sadie Sandler and Chloe East, why he admires Rachel Sonnet and the joy of going to the cinema with his friends.

Rebel Wilson's Australian musical The Deb is joyous, hilarious and moving – and that's largely thanks to Natalie Abbott and Shane Jacobson. In this special Popcorn Podcast episode, we welcome the Aussie stars to talk about the father-daughter dynamic that quietly anchors the The Deb story, what it's like to sing live on a film set, and how grief and connection sit alongside comedy in rural Australia. Abbott, making her major film debut as Taylah, and Jacobson, playing her farmer father Rick, dig into the emotional weight of their characters' missing link and why empathy matters more than toughness. There's also a spirited detour into rugby and a sequel pitch that may or may not involve a wedding.

Kristoffer Borgli, the Norwegian writer-director-editor behind Sick of Myself and Dream Scenario, joins us to talk about his dark romantic comedy The Drama, starring Zendaya and Robert Pattinson. We dig into what it means to make films without a moral safety net, how Borgli writes characters without passing judgement on them, why he believes the best cinema leaves you mid-argument in the car park – and the power of the non-negotiable daily nap.

Indya Moore (Pose) – actor, activist and compelling voice for compassion – joins us to talk new movie Father Mother Sister Brother, Jim Jarmusch's quietly devastating ensemble film about estranged siblings, ageing parents and all the things we leave unsaid. What begins as a simple film chat becomes a candid conversation about grief without closure, the radical act of being honest in a world that finds honesty uncomfortable, what true intimacy looks like, and the search for accountability and grace.
