Popcorn Podcast

Australian superstar Luke Hemsworth joins Popcorn Podcast to talk about his latest role as Jason Wade in Deadloch's second season. The croc tourism empire owner is the kind of guy who gives you the ick and Hemsworth breaks down what drew him to the character, why he was very determined not to base the walking red flag on wildlife warrior Steve Irwin – even though everyone (and Leigh!) keeps asking – and what it's like working in 40-degree Top End heat when you're explicitly forbidden from sweating. Plus, we dive into the eldest Hemsworth brother's history in the Northern Territory, what Australian crews do better than anyone and the story of the moustache that got him in trouble on another show – and then became Jason Wade's signature.

Deadloch is back – stickier, sweatier, and croc-ier than ever – and Popcorn Podcast sits down with Kate Box and Madeleine Sami, the detective duo at the heart of Prime Video's award-winning Australian crime comedy. We get into what keeps the Dulcie and Eddie dynamic crackling in season two, what 40-degree Top End heat does to your brain, and they even drop a cheeky tease about where they'd love to take the characters next. We also try our hand at (bad) New Zealand accents. Oh, and if you haven't seen season two yet, fix that.

We welcome the wildly inventive directors behind horror comedy Ready or Not, and the Scream and Mummy reboots, Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett. The filmmaking pair, better known as Radio Silence, open up to Popcorn Podcast about the pressure — and privilege — of revisiting a world they know so intimately and gleefully breaking a few so-called genre rules along the way, plus give us incredible insights into their upcoming take on The Mummy with Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz returning. So, film lovers, buckle up. This is a fun one with two directors – and fellow film nerds – who are clearly having the time of their lives making movies.

Emmy-winning actor Shawn Hatosy (The Pitt, Animal Kingdom) is on Popcorn Podcast to dig into one of his most compelling villains: Titus Danforth in the highly anticipated horror-comedy sequel Ready or Not 2: Here I Come. Hatosy plays the volatile twin brother of Sarah Michelle Gellar's calculating Ursula Danforth, a man whose entire identity has been forged, and controlled, by his family. Ahead of the film's SXSW Film and TV Festival premiere, Hatosy opened up about finding the core of a character he calls "a monster his family built", the upsides and nasty resets of practical effects and what it's like going toe-to-toe with stunt fight queen – and Buffy herself – Sarah Michelle Gellar.

Beware, this episode contains mild spoilers for Ready or Not 2: Here I Come.
