This episode, we're following the wildly talented Courtney Taylor down her own self-made "yellow brick road." From her early days in Philly to a practical pivot to criminal justice and sociology in Delaware, acting wasn't always on Courtney's radar. But thanks to her movie-loving dad and a growing passion for performance, she eventually found her way to an agent—and a Marvel audition that changed how she approached her career. In this episode, Courtney shares how she carved her own path in the industry, from booking a co-star on Insecure by ad-libbing her way into a fully realized character, to landing a direct offer from Quinta Brunson via DMs for Abbott Elementary. We dive into her scene-stealing comedy work on Shrinking, her bold shift into drama on Ballard, and how she embraces stillness, research, and intuition in her performances. These are the unforgettable stories that landed Courtney Taylor right here.

Mike is joined by Father Malone (Midnight Viewing) and Chris Stachiw (The Kulturecast) to dig into Marvel's latest reboot attempt, Fantastic Four: First Stps (2025), the long-awaited introduction of Marvel's First Family into the MCU. Directed by Matt Shakman and starring Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, and Joseph Quinn, the film blends retro aesthetics with multiversal madness as Reed, Sue, Ben, and Johnny leap from the 1960s into present-day chaos.Does Shakman finally crack the code that's eluded three previous FF films? Or does Marvel's Phase 6 entry stretch itself too thin? The trio tackles the film's performances, its ties to Kang and the Secret Wars setup, and whether this version lives up to the legacy of Jack Kirby and Stan Lee's original cosmic explorers.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-projection-booth-podcast--5513239/support.

Superstar composers John Murphy and David Fleming finally enter the same room (you read that correctly) after an unusual but groundbreaking experience co-composing the score for James Gunn's SUPERMAN. How John's electric guitar-focused approach (he writes themes on a zany guitar he named Ned Flanders) harnessed the majesty of John Williams' iconic theme — and why the trailer debut was nerve racking to see if the world would accept his “version” of it. Also, how his precious guitar themes (28 Days Later, Sunshine) helped prep for how to treat this film with the sound needed. David and John discuss their breakthroughs in film composing — an internship leading to working with Hans Zimmer on The Lion King. Blue Planet II and Top Gun: Maverick — and a book titled “How To Write A Film Score” which was promptly discarded for a few pints. The duo also discuss their unique place in the massive re-launch of the DC Universe's first film — tonally a new direction that called for embracing the campiness a little more, but also the authenticity. How John's music was critical to filming, and later how David navigated a final push to expand the film's musical scope thematically. Also, Squirrelgate.
