Podcast appearances and mentions of Riz Ahmed

Episode 96 – The Phoenician Scheme (Mindframes Podcast) Michael Cockerill and Dave Canfield discuss Wes Anderson's latest film, The Phoenician Scheme. The movie stars Benedict Cumberbatch, Michael Cera, Riz Ahmed, Meena Truppleton, and other regulars from Anderson's filmography. The story centers around Zaza Corda, a wealthy businessman played by Benicio del Toro, who makes the surprising decision to name his daughter—a nun—as his heir. He simultaneously launches a massive infrastructure project in the fictional country of Phoenicia (or Western Phoenicia), encountering opposition from terrorists, rival tycoons, and even his own brother.  

From Oscar-winning director Wes Anderson (The Grand Budapest Hotel, Rushmore, The Royal Tannenbaums) comes his latest uniquely framed and acted adventure about a wealthy businessman (Oscar-Winner Benicio Del Toro) who's on a dangerous mission to not only preserve his wealth but also to possibly reconcile with his daughter played by newcomer Mia Threapleton.  Alongside his latest assistant (and insect expert) Bjorn (Michael Cera), they travel around the world encountering a genuinely unique assortment of rival businessmen and/or potential assassins played by an All-Star cast including Tom Hanks, Rupert Friend, Scarlett Johannsen, Riz Ahmed, Bryan Cranston, Jeffrey Wright, and Benedict Cumberbatch.  And what results is a colorful, quirky, and symettrical adventure which could only come from the mind of Wes Anderson.Host & Editor: Geoff GershonEditor: Ella GershonProducer: Marlene GershonSend us a texthttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

Send us a textOn our 107th podcast, we here at the Triple FFF thought we'd try to once again attempt relevance and discuss a current big release, this time Wes Anderson's 2025 father-daughter high stakes business and espionage caper The Phoenician Scheme starring Benicio Del Toro, Mia Threapleton, Michael Cera, Tom Hanks, Bryan Cranston, Riz Ahmed, Scarlet Johansson, Mathieu Amalric, Jeffrey Wright, Rupert Friend and Benedict Cumberbatch. As well as Mr. Anderson's troupe of good-natured bit players and walk ons which includes Bill Murray, F. Murray Abraham, Wilem Dafoe and now Charlotte Gainsbourg.  I'm your host Gino Caputi and my guests this week are the always dependable show regulars Joe Field, David Johnson DMD and Gordon Alex RobertsonThe Phoenician Scheme's plot unfolds as follows: After surviving yet another assassination attempt, this time with a glimpse of the afterlife, wealthy arms dealer and industrialist Anatole Zsa-Zsa Korda realizes his days are numbered and possibly without purpose. Hoping to reconnect with his estranged daughter Liesl—now on the verge of taking her final vows as a Catholic nun—he names her the sole heir to his estate. In exchange for long-withheld truths about her mother's murder, Korda convinces Liesl to accompany him on a whirlwind journey to secure funding from several colorfully shady investors for his grand, multi-layered Phoenician Scheme—plans for which are ingeniously stored in a series of shoeboxes.Where does this film rank within Wes Anderson's collection of stories about larger-than-life, big talking fathers of dubious emotional and financial sincerity?  Find out!Watch the video podcast on Youtube:https://youtu.be/QVYj2zTif5o

An international co-production between the United States and Germany, it was produced by Anderson's company American Empirical Pictures and Steven Rales's company Indian Paintbrush.Anderson talked about the film in June 2023 while promoting Asteroid City; he said it had already been written before the 2023 WGA strike began. That September, he revealed that del Toro and Cera were planned to join the cast, and he hoped to begin filming soon after the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike ended. The rest of the cast signed on between January and June 2024. Filming took place at Babelsberg Studio in Germany, between March and June 2024, with cinematographer Bruno Delbonnel. Frequent Anderson collaborator Alexandre Desplat returned to compose the score.The Phoenician Scheme had its world premiere in the main competition of the 2025 Cannes Film Festival on May 18, 2025,[3] and was released theatrically in the United States by Focus Features on May 30, with a release date of June 29, 2025 set for Germany by Universal Pictures.

Der phönizische Meisterstreich | Viele Stars, noch mehr Symmetrie Es wird wieder einmal symmetrisch – Wes Anderson kehrt am 29. Mai mit seinem neuen Film „Der phönizische Meisterstreich“ auf die Kinoleinwand zurück. In der skurrilen Komödie spielt Benicio del Toro einen exzentrischen Geschäftsmann, der gemeinsam mit seiner Tochter Liesl (gespielt von Mia Threapleton), einer Nonne, und einem Insektenexperten einen raffinierten Coup plant. Wie Schlogger, Stu und ihre Gästin Laura vom WILD Magazin den Film fanden, verraten wir an dieser Stelle nicht. Stattdessen nutzen wir den Raum, um all die illustren Namen zu nennen, die sich im hochkarätigen Ensemble tummeln. Also: einmal tief Luft holen, denn es folgt ein echtes Star-Feuerwerk. Mit dabei sind: Tom Hanks, Scarlett Johansson, Willem Dafoe, Michael Cera, Riz Ahmed, Bryan Cranston, Benedict Cumberbatch, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Jeffrey Wright, Bill Murray, F.

Hello everyone and welcome back to another review here on MOVIE Morning. Wes Anderson's latest film - The Phoenician Scheme - hit UK cinemas this past weekend and will have a slow international rollout over the next month or so. I am a bit of a Wes Anderson noob. I watched Fantastic Mr. Fox obsessively when I was younger and have seen The Grand Budapest Hotel but other than that, I don't have an exact recollection of whether I've seen any of his other movies. Because of the early release here, I thought I'd give The Phoenician Scheme a shot, especially because Anderson has such a passionate following and the plot description seemed interesting to me. Is it worth seeing at the cinema?

Collaborating with emerging young talent to renowned artistssuch as Marina Abramović, Riz Ahmed and Talk Art's own Russell Tovey, WePresentshowcases the best in art, photography, film, music, literature and more, championingdiversity in everything it does.In this episode we'll be speaking to acclaimed photographer Robin de Puy about her newproject AMERICAN, a collaboration with WePresent, which is an unflinching portrait of adivided nation. AMERICAN shares Robin's unique perspective on the often-overlookedfaces that represent the country's incredible diversity and complexity, and poses thequestion: What does it mean to be American?Visit: https://robin-de-puy-american.wetransfer.com/Follow: @Robin_De_Puy and @WePresentRobin de Puy's (b.1986, the Netherlands) photographs start with a desire to tell her own story through the faces of others. Whether it's the freckled adolescent she noticed whilst refuelling in Wyoming, the Dutch author, poet and columnist Remco Campert, or the boy Randy she met in Nevada whilst on her American road trip, de Puy sees the camera as an aid to understand the deeply personal traits and histories of each person, and how they also reveal something about herself. Many of her encounters are fleeting; a heartfelt glance into the life of someone else before time resumes its frantic pace. In others, as with Randy, those same transient experiences blossom into profound and enduring relationships. Regardless of which ending they have, de Puy's photographs are always imbued with a sensitivity and timelessness that encourages a slow gaze on the human condition. Her images are chances for genuine human connection, and through sharing with them with the world, allow us to take part in such moments.Robin de Puy studied at the Fotoacademie Rotterdam and has been exhibited internationally at institutions and galleries including; Bonnefantenmuseum, Maastricht (2018); Museum Hilversum, Hilversum (2017); The Hague Museum of Photography, The Hague (2016); Stedelijk Museum, Breda (2016) and Photoville, New York (2016). Amongst numerous other awards, De Puy was the winner of the National Portrait Prize in both 2013 and 2019. Her work is held in major public and private collections including Bonnefantenmuseum, Maastricht; De Nederlandse Bank, Amsterdam; Museum Voorlinden, Wassenaar; Centraal Museum Utrecht, Utrecht; Fotomuseum Den Haag, The Hague; Huis Marseille, Amsterdam and Ministry of Foreign Affairs, The Hague.

The first film in Sony's Spider-Man Universe (SSU), it was directed by Ruben Fleischer from a screenplay by the writing team of Jeff Pinkner and Scott Rosenberg, along with Kelly Marcel. Tom Hardy stars as Eddie Brock and Venom alongside Michelle Williams, Riz Ahmed, Scott Haze, and Reid Scott. In the film, struggling journalist Eddie gains superpowers after becoming the host of an alien symbiote, Venom, whose species plans to invade Earth. Following Venom's appearance in Spider-Man 3 (2007), Sony Pictures attempted to develop a spin-off film based on the Venom character, which was stalled due to issues with the company's ongoing Spider-Man franchise. In March 2016, work began on a new version that would start a new shared universe featuring the non-Spider-Man Marvel characters that the studio possessed film rights to. Sony also originally intended for the Venom film to share the world of the Marvel Cinematic Universe film Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017), but ultimately distanced the film from Spider-Man. Sony's Columbia Pictures produced the film in association with Marvel Entertainment.[5] In March 2017, Rosenberg and Pinkner were set to write, with Fleischer and Hardy added in May; Marcel subsequently joined to rewrite the script. Filming took place from October 2017 to January 2018 in Atlanta, New York City, and San Francisco. The film was primarily inspired by the comic book miniseries Venom: Lethal Protector (1993) and the story arc "Planet of the Symbiotes" (1995). Ludwig Göransson was hired to compose the film's score, marking his second Marvel film after Black Panther (2018). Venom premiered at the Regency Village Theater on October 1, 2018, and was theatrically released in the United States on October 5. Despite receiving generally negative reviews from critics, Hardy's performance and the character's relationship with Venom were praised, and the film became the seventh-highest-grossing film of 2018, earning over $856 million worldwide and setting several box office records for an October release. It is followed by two sequels: Venom: Let There Be Carnage, which was released on October 1, 2021, and Venom: The Last Dance, which is scheduled for release on October 25, 2024. Venom: Let There Be Carnage is a 2021 American superhero film featuring the Marvel Comics character Venom. The sequel to Venom (2018) and the second film in Sony's Spider-Man Universe (SSU), it was directed by Andy Serkis from a screenplay by Kelly Marcel. Tom Hardy stars as Eddie Brock and Venom alongside Michelle Williams, Naomie Harris, Reid Scott, Stephen Graham, and Woody Harrelson. In the film, Eddie and the alien symbiote Venom must face serial killer Cletus Kasady (Harrelson) after he becomes the host of an offshoot of Venom named Carnage. Venom was intended by Sony Pictures to be the start of a new shared universe, and plans for a sequel began during production on the first film. Harrelson was cast to make a brief appearance as Cletus at the end of Venom, with the intention of him becoming the villain Carnage in the sequel. Official work on the sequel began in January 2019, with Hardy and Harrelson confirmed to return along with Marcel as writer. Serkis was hired as director that August, partly due to his experience working with computer-generated imagery (CGI) and motion capture technology, which was an important part of portraying Venom and Carnage in the film. Filming took place at Leavesden Studios in England from November 2019 to February 2020, with additional filming in San Francisco in February. The title was announced in April 2020. Marco Beltrami was hired to compose the film's score, replacing Ludwig Göransson from the previous film.

We're hours away from Scary Movie Month and---while Nightcrawler doesn't exactly qualify as frightening---it IS intense. Jake Gyllenhaal is certainly at his Taxi Driver weirdest. He's also just about at his best in Dan Gilroy's investigation of capitalism-at-any-cost. Rough stuff, but it's also quite funny. Gyllenhaal plays an amoral "stringer" (a freelance videographer) who knows that ratings equals money and "if it bleeds, it leads". He'll do absolutely anything to get the shot...and then we discover the gory results. Rene Russo, Bill Paxton and Riz Ahmed are effective too, but this film belongs to the worm in the lead role. So doll up to look your best before you go on the air to glorify crime scenes and put a scare in your viewers as the 613rd episode of Have You Ever Seen gets deep into the scummy world of Nightcrawler.

Erik Childress spent six days at this year's Toronto Film Festival and is here to dish on a bunch of the films he saw. They include the latest works from Francis Ford Coppola, Pedro Almodovar, Ron Howard and Sean Baker. Films about the aging plight of women in entertainment with Demi Moore, Elisabeth Moss and Pamela Anderson run the gamut from great to dismal. The Vatican and religion have their share of bad guys too. Erik splits his votes on a pair of relationship dramas as well as films about Press Your Luck and Saturday Night Live. Nicole Kidman and Amy Adams handle their unsatisfying home lives in wildly different manners. Plus, the latest Stephen King adaptation from Mike Flanagan wins both the festival's Audience Award as well as Erik's heart.

Welcome back ragers to the best movie review podcast on the planet. The rage rolls on from the Film Rage Studio. This week the Film Rage Crew took in two much anticipated films at the cinema. The latest from Sophia Coppola is up first with Pricilla. Then we move onto Fingernails staring two of the best actors around, Jesse Buckley and Riz Ahmed. Plus this week Jim was forced to watch The Shaggy Dog and not the original, but the remake, although I do not think it makes too much of a difference which he had to endure. I am pretty sure they would both make Jim Rage.

Screen Cares hosts, Sarah & Jennie, received a listener question for this week's episode: "My children care about inclusivity and equity but express that they aren't sure if their individual efforts matter, and express that it's hard to always keep up the 'good fight' against hatred. Is there a film that I could show my children that could demonstrate how important it is to be an active ally?"This was a challenging question but we've got the perfect film! And while the PG-rated film, Nimona (2023), based on ND Stevenson's graphic novel, is a fantastic screening choice for kids, it also is wildly entertaining and inspiring enough for humans of all ages. Nimona demonstrates the immense value of acknowledging and celebrating human differences and the value of being brave enough to be a true friend and ally.Screen Shares Rating: Family Screen and Little ScreenScreen SparksThink about an issue of identity that feels uncomfortable for you. Discomfort often comes from fear, rather than blind hatred. So, ask yourself this: What are you afraid of? Why are you uncomfortable with elements of someone else's identity that don't impact you?How do your relationships with individuals impact your ability to have compassion? Think about a time when you or someone you love has suffered. How can you generalize your feelings of compassion towards your loved one to someone not known to you, who is also suffering?There have been several recent examples of public backlash for inclusion of depictions of same-sex relationships or affection. There are also lots of examples of suggestive heterosexual content in media marketed to children that receive much less backlash. What are some ways in which we can address this?Why do we avoid making other people uncomfortable by remaining silent to offensive comments or behavior?Click HERE for a full transcript and full list of resources from today's episode.Visit www.ScreenCares.com for all of the resources mentioned in the episode and for additional Screen Cares content.Follow the podcast on Instagram @screencarespod and Facebook!Subscribe to Screen Cares wherever you enjoy podcasts to make sure you never miss an opportunity to watch better, together.

"Fingernails" had its world premiere at the Telluride Film Festival, where it received positive reviews for its quirky blend of low-key sci-fi, romance, and commentary on relationships. The performances from Jessie Buckley, Riz Ahmed, and Jeremy Allen White also drew attention on top of Christos Nikou's screenplay. Nikou was kind enough following the film's screening at the Toronto International Film Festival to speak with us regarding his work on the film, views toward romantic relationships, and more. Please be sure to take a listen and check out the film, which will be playing in limited release this weekend and will be available to stream on Apple TV+ on November 3rd. Thank you, and enjoy!
