Andor creator Tony Gilroy + STRIKE
Listen now
Description
Andor creator Tony Gilroy (Rogue One; the Bourne movies; Armageddon) discusses on getting hot on a project, writing vivid scenes, the incremental building of a series, his early resume including The Cutting Edge and Dolores Claiborne, and his disparate influences. But first: the WGA is on strike. In the first of many conversations with working writers on strike, Ben Blacker chats with M3gan writer Akela Cooper (Star Trek: Brave New Worlds; Luke Cage) about her hopes, fears, and why we're taking this action. This interview with Tony Gilroy was recorded before the WGA strike began. THE WRITERS PANEL IS NOW A COMPLETELY INDEPENDENT PRODUCTION.
