Podcasts about His Dark Materials

You might know the star of Rivals for his revealing role in the hit Disney+ show, but did you know about his dramatic allium allergy?! I thought not. Alex Hassell might be best known for his portrayal of the dashing bounder, Rupert Campbell-Black in the Emmy-Award winning TV adaptation of Jilly Cooper's Rivals but his career spans the Royal Shakespeare Company, a leading role opposite Anya Taylor-Joy in The Miniaturist, HBO's His Dark Materials and co-founding the pioneering Factory Theatre Company. In this conversation, Alex reflects on the role therapy and his marriage have played in weathering early-career rejection. We talk about his struggle with self-confidence, his unlikely 'failure' to get into trouble and the rebellious streak that defined his youth - including that time he took acid at Alton Towers. Plus: having to spray tan his own private parts. This episode was recorded live at the Barbican earlier this year. ✨ IN THIS EPISODE: 00:00 Intro 03:17 Season Two of Rivals 04:35 The Challenges of Acting 05:28 Therapy and Self-Reflection 11:17 Overcoming Self-Doubt 13:31 School Experiences and Bullying 20:13 The Factory Theater Company 23:31 Reflecting on Early Career Challenges 23:57 The Onion Allergy Struggle 28:16 Balancing Historical Accuracy and Sensitivity in 'Rivals' 29:30 The Pressure to Be Good 33:12 Family Influence and Personal Growth 40:57 The Actor's Vulnerability and Connection

Welcome to The B-Side! Here we talk about movie stars! Not the movies that made them famous or kept them famous, but the ones that they made in between. Today we talk about someone who played Bond, James Bond, and Blanc, Benoit Blanc. It's Daniel Craig! Our returning guest is the great Gavin Mevius, co-host of both The Mixed Reviews Podcast and The Q Division on Glitterjaw. Our B-Sides today include The Mother, Enduring Love, The Golden Compass, and Cowboys & Aliens. We also spend some time on The Invasion. We remember the controversy of Craig's being blonde and being cast as Bond (silly!), as well as the early roles he took on before our B-Sides. There's conversation on the films of Roger Michell and if he really is some version of Mike Leigh lite. There's also an earnest debate about which film is worse: The Golden Compass or Cowboys & Aliens? Mild shock takes hold as we three recall both that HBO did in fact make FULL THREE SEASONS of His Dark Materials (!) and the somewhat disingenuous, cash-grabby way Cowboys & Aliens came to be.

We are BACK! Season 7!  Welcoming to The Chai Room for our first episode is the legendary actor Nabil Elouahabi.  Nabil's television credits span an impressive range of critically acclaimed series, including Quarter Life, FBI: International, the BAFTA-winning Blue Lights, Unforgotten, Breeders, The Tower, Time, Our Girl, His Dark Materials, Deep State, The Missing, The Night Of, 24: Live Another Day, Top Boy, and the Emmy-nominated HBO miniseries Generation Kill alongside Alexander Skarsgård. One of his most iconic early roles came in the Only Fools and Horses Christmas Day special Strangers on the Shore, where he played Rashid “Gary” Mahmoon - a fan-favourite appearance. Nabil began his screen career working with acclaimed British director Michael Winterbottom (In This World, Code 46), and has since featured in a wide range of celebrated international films including Desert Warrior, Fuze, Heavyweight, The Way of the Wind, Fatum, The Outrun, Hoard, Infinite, Sand Castle, Hyena Road, Reign of the General, Zero Dark Thirty(opposite Jessica Chastain and Jason Clarke), Tower Block, Junkhearts, Blitz, Journey to Mecca, Charlie Wilson's War(with Tom Hanks), Ali G Indahouse, Deserter, and The Sum of All Fears. On stage, his theatre work includes Noura at Playwrights Horizons (New York), Oslo and Another World at the National Theatre, Fireworks at the Royal Court, Oil at the Almeida, I Call My Brothers and The Nightmares of Carlos Fuentes at the Arcola, and Love Your Soldiers in Sheffield.   Topics breakdown:  Spiritualisim and work on self belief- in an industry where you have to be so Malleable and almost be in the peaks and valleys.

It's been more than 30 years since Philip Pullman began the His Dark Materials series – and now, that story is coming to a close. Pullman's latest book The Rose Field follows the series' heroine Lyra Belacqua as she chases the same mystery she began unraveling as a child. In today's episode, Pullman joins NPR's Scott Detrow for a conversation that touches on organized religion, reimagining Lyra as an adult, and a central concept in the series – Dust.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedayLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Apple's latest thriller starts with relatively small stakes: a house explosion with one survivor, a young girl named Dinah, catches the notice of an Oxford art conservator played by Ruth Wilson (The Affair, His Dark Materials). On her search for the child's whereabouts and the suspicious circumstances around the blast, she enlists the help of a two-headed detective agency. That's where the conspiracy takes hold, the bodies start adding up, and the other main character, Zoë, played by Emma Thompson, joins the fray. On this podcast, we review the first two episodes and discuss our thoughts, observations, and hopes for the rest of the series.Tune in and enjoy. Welcome to Today's Episode!

‘A lot of the fantasy that I have read is unsatisfactory for me because it's not interested in psychology, it's not interested how people think or feel'Katie Razzall speaks to renowned British author Sir Philip Pullman as he publishes his latest, and final book in the series, The Rose Field. He's best-known for writing the award-winning ‘His Dark Materials' - a series of novels beloved by children and adults alike all over the world. The books follow the adventures of the two main characters - Lyra and Will - across a series of parallel universes, where Pullman blends magical storytelling with physics, philosophy and theology.Pullman was a part-time English lecturer when the first instalment in the series was published thirty years ago. Tens of millions of copies have been sold across multiple continents, and the stories have been translated into 40 languages.The commercial and critical success spawned a follow-up series, The Book of Dust, which came out nearly a decade ago. The 79-year-old has now picked up his pen to publish this latest and final instalment.Although loved all over the world, the stories have also attracted controversy for their criticism of religion. Pullman, who once described himself as a ‘Church of England atheist', is outspoken on a number of modern-day issues - such as politics, free speech, and indeed faith - with his views regularly influencing his writing.Thank you to the Culture team for their help in making this programme.

Happy Halloween!! This episode, we join Alice and Peter, two PhD Students in Magick studies, as they journey to hell to save their advisor in R.F. Kuang's new fantasy novel Katabasis. We start off spoiler free in this first of three episodes with our initial reactions, thoughts on pretentiousness in relation to academic prestige and precarity, and who we ultimately think this book is for.As a bit of a content warning, Katabasis deals with abuse and suicidal ideation. Because these themes are pretty central to the novel, we won't be able to provide specific timecodes for when it comes up in our own discussion, but wanted to make sure you know going in.

Growing up in Bristol, acclaimed playwright and screenwriter Jack Thorne was a shy, politically driven kid who believed he could change the world- first through politics, then acting, before discovering that storytelling was where his voice truly belonged.In this episode of Full Disclosure, James O'Brien sits down with the Emmy and BAFTA-winning creator of This Is England, His Dark Materials, Harry Potter And The Cursed Child and Adolescence to trace Jack's journey from a lonely teenager to one of the most prolific writers of his generation. They talk about ambition, failure, neurodiversity, and the years of illness that left Jack literally allergic to movement, and how that experience shaped his empathy, activism and craft.This conversation reveals a writer driven not by fame, but by purpose- to make television and theatre more inclusive, more truthful, and more alive to the lives of those too often left out of the story.Find out more about television series The Hack here

You could rewind the podcast, listen in reverse, and Stuart (co-host) would still sound like he's decoding alien transmissions. People keep saying we should be 'industry voices'—but the world has plenty of self-appointed sages peddling their predictable patter. We'd rather stay unpredictable than be another echo in the expert chamber.Vinroy, from Linstead, Jamaica sets the first listener question today  - “Would a multiverse be compatible with our current understanding of reality?”William (your other co-host) ponders, what even is reality? Stuart shrugs and suggests reality's just a dodgy software update away from collapsing. Cue William, citing His Dark Materials, where every time you pick tea over coffee, another universe spins off with deeply confused baristas. Stuart steers things into, if it feels good, it's probably carbon neutral territory, while William counters, change hurts. Stuart argues life shouldn't feel like an eco bootcamp. William admits his internal habits committee is... inefficient. The multiverse? Tempting. But for now, this one's tricky enough.Scott, Arisaig, Scotland - “Can we ever claim to have absolute knowledge about anything? The human brain can't conceive  the notion of nothingness. Before the big bang, there was nothing. What did that look like? Can a human brain ever conceive of that.”William isn't buying Scott's nothing before the Big Bang theory—he reckons there was probably something, even if it was just cosmic awkward silence. Stuart thinks time is just our brains trying to make calendars feel important. William drops in 14 billion years like it's a fun fact; Stuart counters with do we really know why water's wet? Before spiraling into Newtonian conspiracy. William argues for concrete truths—like sogginess—and Stuart, mid-meditation, wonders if truth is just our neurons doing improv. William challenges listeners to imagine nothing. Stuart wants the Dalai Lama's take. William just wants anyone's.What do you make of this discussion?

“There was no perfect moment to be ready. I just had to try things and figure out who I was through doing.” — Gryun Kim What does it really take to build a creative voice when tools can imitate style at the push of a button? As AI-powered software is changing how we think about the creative process, many artists are facing a new kind of identity crisis. In this episode of Object Subject Form, we explore how originality, process, and innovation remain critical in defining who we are creatively. Gryun Kim is an Emmy-winning motion designer and art director known for his main title work on The Last of Us and His Dark Materials. From Elastic to Giantstep, his career has been defined not just by aesthetics, but by how he challenges trends, resists shortcuts, and leans into the hard work of building something unique. We talk about how AI is influencing the creative process, the dangers of design sameness, and how Gryun uses process and constraint as tools of constant innovation. For anyone feeling lost in the noise of technological trends, this is a grounding conversation about choosing craft over convenience, and defining identity through the work itself. – Gryun's YouTube Channel: Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@kimgryun – Gryun's website: https://g-ryun.com/ – Connect with Gryun on Instagram Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kimgryun/?hl=en – Connect with Simon: https://zaap.bio/simonclowes – Object Subject Form on Instagram:  https://instagram.com/objectsubjectform

Interview with John Leon of The Royal Arctic Institute. John returns for the third time to talk about The Royal Arctic Institute's new self titled album.  The Royal Arctic Institute is a cinematic instrumental post-jazz group from New York City. They have been recording and releasing records since 2017. Since forming in 2016, the band has been a revolving door of different musicians comprising several different lineups. The current lineup is composed of drummer Lyle Hysen (Das Damen, Arthur Lee), guitarists John Leon (Roky Erickson, Summer Wardrobe, Abra Moore) and Chris Robertson (Elk City, James Mastro), and bassist David Motamed (Das Damen, Two Dollar Guitar, Arthur Lee, Townes Van Zandt). The band name is a reference to the fantasy trilogy His Dark Materials by Philip Pullman. All four members of the Royal Arctic Institute have spent decades playing in various ensembles, working as studio musicians, backing musicians, and touring musicians. This self-titled fourth full-length recording from The Royal Arctic Institute is the first to include guitarist Chris Robertson. According to the band, Robertson is a crucial addition to the group, as he provides an added dimension to The Royal Arctic Institute sound and creative process, particularly because this debuts the group as a two guitar quintet. The decision to present this new album as a self-titled record is tightly connected to the band's excitement about their current musical direction. The new album also marks the first time The Royal Arctic Institute is working with Ray Ketchum of Magic Door Recording. Ketchum, often noted for his engineering and recording work on the last handful of Guided by Voices albums, helped steer the band towards an approach which allowed for a rich and fully developed sonic experience. Ketchum's keen and well attuned ear in the studio made it possible for The Royal Arctic Institute to focus more on the nuances they had been developing on previous releases, something apparent on “Twigs Of Cries, Feathers Of Sobs.” As guitarist John Leon points out:         https://www.theroyalarctic.com/

On this month's episode of Magus we are travelling all about Renaissance Europe and up through the layers of the heavens to undertake divine revelations into the life, times, and accomplishments of Giordano Bruno!From Bruno's early life as a Dominican priest, forced to flee one of six popes he thoroughly annoyed, right up to his horrid execution in the Campo de' Fiori, we're running through a wild highlights reel of his accomplishments - both in the development of his pioneering mnemonic memory systems through to creation of his occult philosophy, rooted in 'Egyptian Magic.'It's a wild journey, ranging from forbidden texts, hidden in the walls of a latrine, back through time to the birth of Renaissance Magic care of the likes of Pico and Ficino, into the heart of the French and English courts, to all the Universities where Bruno made himself so unpopular, wizardry aside this would still be a fascinating story. Yet, Giordano Bruno also preached a unique gospel, informed by the mythology of Hermes Trismegistus, which involved using hieroglyphics to talk to angels, flirting with Queen Elisabeth I, writing pretty ripe poetry, and trying to debate the failings of Christianity with the Pope himself...With examples of Bruno's wilder mystic beliefs as well as examples of how he shaped Renaissance science and culture, and even inspired aspects of Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials trilogy, if you know nothing about Bruno then this one is going to be a face-melter. And if you do, we bet the wealth of a mid-rank Medici that there will be things in this episode that will still surprise you! The Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays (Magic and Medicines about folk remedies and arcane spells, Three Ravens Bestiary about cryptids and mythical creatures, Dying Arts about endangered heritage crafts, and Something Wicked about folkloric true crime from across history) plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.With a range of exclusive content on Patreon, too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?Learn more at www.threeravenspodcast.com, join our Patreon at www.patreon.com/threeravenspodcast, and find links to our social media channels here: https://linktr.ee/threeravenspodcast Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

British actor and comedian Nick Frost is reportedly in final talks to play Rubeus Hagrid in HBO's upcoming Harry Potter TV series, a decade-long adaptation of J.K. Rowling's bestselling fantasy novels. Frost, known for Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz, would step into the iconic role originally portrayed by Robbie Coltrane. While HBO has yet to officially confirm the casting, Frost's cryptic Instagram post and recent social media activity have fueled fan speculation. The high-profile series is being helmed by His Dark Materials writer Francesca Gardiner and Succession director Mark Mylod, and will feature a new cast including John Lithgow, Janet McTeer, and Paapa Essiedu. If confirmed, Frost's casting would bring heartfelt humor and warmth to the beloved Hogwarts character, making him a standout choice for a new generation of fans.Keywords: Nick Frost Hagrid, HBO Harry Potter series, Harry Potter TV show cast, new Hagrid actor, HBO fantasy series, Robbie Coltrane Hagrid, Francesca Gardiner, Mark Mylod Harry Potter, decade-long Harry Potter reboot.

A 42-year-old man auditioned for Hermione in the new HBO Harry Potter TV adaptation, despite the show's open casting call, sparking controversy and amusement. The rumored casting of a black actor as Snape has led to accusations of race-bending, with some fans arguing it contradicts the character's vivid description in the books. The show's decision to gender-swap characters and race-bend actors has sparked backlash from fans who feel it goes against the books' descriptions and is an attempt to be politically correct. Showrunner Francesca Gardner's history of race-bending characters in her work on His Dark Materials has raised concerns about the show's commitment to book accuracy. The casting choices have ignited a wider debate about representation in adaptations, with some arguing it prioritizes political correctness over genuine commitment to diversity.
