This week on the Geektown Radio podcast Bex from TristaBytes returns to the show (with all her limbs intact for once!) to discuss the latest films, games, all the UK TV premiere date info, and US TV news. We also report on our weekend at MCM Birmingham Comic Con, plus we have an interview with Tom Hopper & Emmy Raver-Lampman, aka Luther & Allison from Netflix's 'The Umbrella Academy'.On the same day in 1989, forty-three infants are inexplicably born to random, unconnected women who showed no signs of pregnancy the day before. Seven are adopted by Sir Reginald Hargreeves, a billionaire industrialist, who creates The Umbrella Academy and prepares his "children" to save the world. But not everything went according to plan. In their teenage years, the family fractured and the team disbanded. Now, the six surviving thirty-something members reunite upon the news of Hargreeve’s passing. Luther, Diego, Allison, Klaus, Vanya and Number Five work together to solve a mystery surrounding their father's death. But the estranged family once again begins to come apart due to their divergent personalities and abilities, not to mention the imminent threat of a global apocalypse.Tom Hopper you will know from shows such as 'Black Sails' where he played Billy Bones, 'Merlin' when he donned the armour of Sir Percival, 'Game of Thrones' which saw him star as Dickon Tarly, and, of course, 'The Umbrella Academy' where he plays Luther/Spaceboy.Allison in 'Umbrella Academy' is Emmy Raver-Lampman's first major tv series role, however, she is also an accomplished musical theatre actress. She previously starred as Angelica Schuyler the smash hit musical Hamilton along with also starring in shows such as Hair, Jekyll & Hyde, and Wicked.

This week's Geektown Radio podcast is a special edition from MCM Birmingham Comic-Con, as we interview 'Man In The High Castle' & 'Agents Of Shield' star Jason O’Mara, 'The Walking Dead' & 'Britannia' star David Morrissey, and had a really interesting chat with 'Rogue One' actress Ingvild Deila.Irish actor Jason O’Mara is probably best known for his roles as Wyatt in Amazon's 'Man In The High Castle' and playing Jeffrey Mace, aka The Patriot in Marvel's 'Agents Of Shield'. He's also popped up in shows such as 'The Good Wife', starred in cruelly cut short sci-fi 'Terra Nova', and is has voiced Bruce Wayne/Batman in a number of WB's animated movies.David Morrissey is a familiar face to viewers in the UK and around the world having starred as Philip 'The Governor' Blake in 'The Walking Dead', and most recently, as Aulus in Sky Atlantic's 'Britannia'. He starred in 'State of Play', played Gordon Brown in Peter Morgan's 'The Deal', starred as Tobias in 'Extant' and Sam in 'The Missing'. Along with the upcoming 2nd Season of 'Britannia', he is also due to pop up in Amazon's adaptation of 'Good Omens', playing Captain Vincent.Whilst you might not know the name Ingvild Deila or recognise her face, but if you saw 'Rogue One', you have seen her on screen as she had the small but important role of portraying a young Princess Leia. Ingvild discusses the process which went into bringing the young Carrie Fisher to screen and what it felt like to be a part of the iconic Star Wars franchise.
