#558 — Scott Adkins, Chris Pine & Hugh Grant, Michelle Rodriguez & Regé-Jean Page, Justice Smith & Sophia Lillis

The Empire Film Podcast

OK, we're not going to lie. This week's episode of the (freshly award-nominated) Empire Podcast is even more bumper-sized than usual, folks. But that's what happens when the legendary action star, Scott Adkins, strolls into the podbooth and joins Chris Hewitt, Helen O'Hara and James Dyer for the first third of the show, talking about his time as Killa Harkan in John Wick: Chapter 4. Scott also sticks around for the listener question section, which is nice. Oh, and there's a big John Wick Chapter 4 spoiler from 08:06.000 to 09:25.438. Elsewhere, Chris has three incredibly fun chats with what seems like the entire cast of Dungeons & Dragons: Honour Among Thieves — Chris Pine and Hugh Grant talk about what they look for in a director, Michelle Rodriguez and Regé-Jean Page wax lyrical about Northern Ireland and seals, and Justice Smith and Sophia Lillis help Chris rediscover his love of the podcast form. It'll all make sense once you hear them. And then, either side of that, it's a fun episode as Chris, Helen and James trawl through the movie news, take a tangent or ten, and review Dungeons & Dragons, Tetris, Murder Mystery 2 and more. Oh, and Chris whips out his Adam Sandler Top 10. The results may shock you. Enjoy!
