Podcast appearances and mentions of Russell Crowe

This week, Giles Alderson is absolutely thrilled to be joined by one of the most influential and respected producers in independent cinema today: the visionary Ken Kao! As the co-founder and President of Waypoint Entertainment, Ken Kao has been the driving force behind an incredible slate of diverse and thought-provoking films and has recently formed a strategic partnership with the acclaimed distributor Neon. Ken has produced a dozen feature films, with an impressive filmography that includes working with cinematic titans like Martin Scorsese on the powerful drama Silence, and Terrence Malick on his contemplative films Song to Song and Knight of Cups. He also produced the action-comedy The Nice Guys, starring Ryan Gosling and Russell Crowe, and The Glass Castle, adapted from the bestselling book by Jeannette Walls and starring Brie Larson and Woody Harrelson. His work also extends to the intense Western Hostiles starring Christian Bale, the suspenseful Tau, and the gritty police drama Rampart. His recent projects include the highly anticipated Project Hail Mary, again starring Ryan Gosling, and the horror film Cuckoo. It's worth noting that Ken also co-founded a production company with his frequent collaborator, the acclaimed actor and filmmaker Ryan Gosling, a partnership dedicated to developing a wide range of unique material for film and television. Ken's dedication to diverse and impactful storytelling truly sets him apart. Join Giles and Ken as they delve into the intricate world of film producing. We'll be discussing the art of identifying compelling stories, the challenges of navigating financing and distribution in the independent sector (especially with Waypoint's recent partnership with Neon), the collaborative process with visionary directors and talented casts like Ryan Gosling, and Ken's philosophy on fostering creativity while bringing ambitious projects to fruition. This is an unmissable conversation for anyone aspiring to produce, passionate about independent film, or simply curious about the crucial role of a producer in shaping cinematic masterpieces.

Welcome back to The Movie Draft House! We're continuing our year-long theme of "one degree of separation" where each new film we review has to have some connection to it from the previous weeks' film. This week we are reviewing the 2013 Zack Snyder film "Man of Steel" starring Henry Cavill, Amy Adams, Michael Shannon, Russell Crowe, Diane Lane, and Kevin Costner.

Gene Hackman left us in shocking and tragic circumstances on February 18, 2025. With his signature intensity, he may be one of the least stony actors of all time, but he was one of the best. To pay tribute to him we have his trippiest movie this side of CISCO PIKE (1971) with the quick-cut, dolly-shot, bullet-hole-cam madness of Sam Raimi's THE QUICK AND THE DEAD (1995). In this tribute to Sergio Leone's ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST (1968), Gene Hackman delivers one of his most villainous performances as old west tyrant John Herod, who draws every shootist to his desert town for an annual gunfighting competition where the contestants duel to the death. Joining us to talk about Raimi's modern spaghetti western is actor LENNIE LOFTIN, who plays the grizzled townie Foy and gets to toss around an up-and-coming Russell Crowe in the movie. THE QUICK AND THE DEAD also stars Sharon Stone in the gender-swapped Man-with-No-Name role, Crowe in his first U.S. picture, and then rising star Leonardo DiCaprio as the cocky kid who is pretty good with a six-shooter. Plus Lance Henriksen, Keith David, Pat Hingle, Raynor Schiene, Roberts Blossom, and the great Woody Strode in his final film. Just about everybody's in this one and we are so lucky to have Loftin here to talk about this amazing film. Also joining host Bob Calhoun in her OMFYS debut, Rosemary Picado. Now you have heard her haunting vocals in the "O Nosferatu" carol in our NOSFERATU CHRISTMAS episode, but this is her first time as a panelist. She's a QUICK AND THE DEAD expert and fanatic, so we couldn't do this episode without her. Cory, Greg, and Philena are on assignment but they'll be back for The PhilenApocalypse III: Drag Story Time where Philena returns to torture the olds with TO WONG FOO, THANKS FOR EVERYTHING!

Saddle up—it's Book Club Month on So Many Sequels, and this week, we're diving into Elmore Leonard's gritty Western adaptation, 3:10 to Yuma (2007). Featuring powerhouse performances from Christian Bale and Russell Crowe, this film offers more than gunfights—it's a tense exploration of honor, fatherhood, and redemption.We explore the film's themes of masculinity in crisis, the dynamic between Dan Evans and Ben Wade, and the surprising emotional core at the heart of this modern Western. Is this one of the best genre remakes of the 2000s? Does the short story adaptation expand or stretch too far? And how does the ending compare to Leonard's original vision?Whether you're a Western fan or a curious newcomer, this one's worth the ride.

Is this another one of the guys' craven attempts to get you to buy ITMT merch or Russ' book HOST, available wherever you buy books? Of course not, they would never!

It is Geek Salad's Disney month but this year's topic is more Disney-adjacent. Since the Marvel Cinematic Universe came to be, most of its offerings have been met with praise. However, as time went along, there have been some MCU properties that have been maligned, not for reasons of quality, but for much more arbitrary and superficial reasons. To go over some of these, Geek Salad is back with Episode 254: Wokeanda Forever! (AKA Russell Crowe's Rage Scarf). Join Andy, Mike, Joe, and Katherine as they discuss which MCU offerings they feel were snubbed by some members of the fanbase for reasons of a more superficial nature. From Iron Man 3 to Agatha All Along, the gang covers both movies and TV shows. So tune in if for no other reason than to find out what a Russell Crowe Rage Scarf is.

In this episode of The Cocktail Academy, host Damian sits down with Laura Bonner, founder of The Muff Liquor Company, for a deep dive into how a Donegal girl with a bold dream turned her family roots (and potatoes!) into a premium international spirits brand.Laura shares the very real ups and downs of building a business—from an idea sparked by her grandfather's poitin to launching a spirits range that's now taking the U.S. by storm. You'll hear the unfiltered story behind the cheeky brand name, the fight to be taken seriously, and how she landed global investors like Russell Crowe and Ed Sheeran.Whether you're into Irish spirits, brand-building, or just a sucker for a great origin story, this one is packed with lessons, laughs, and serious hustle.

One of the biggest guests ever on Chubstep, Steed and Big Money Banks are joined by the controversial and elusive Easter Bunny. Before the interview the guys discuss why eating rabbit is better than chicken, and the history of the Easter Bunny from ancient Greek's to Germanic tribes. Listeners will be surprised to hear the Irish female sounding bunny discuss rabbit genocide, how she traded her sexual desires for an egg hole in return for living forever, a surprise appearance from Santa which opens up the tumultuous relationship between him and the Easter Bunny, Abe Lincoln in Reno Nevada, her relationship with Russell Crowe, and a parting song.

Are You In The Muff Market? Are You A Muff Liquor Man?  Ok folks, we're going to have fun on this one.  When I started the research for this episode, I wasn't sure whether the "Muff Liquor Company" name was a tongue-in-somewhere thing or a hard lean-in. Turns out it's the latter with a healthy dose of the former. It is a company based in Muff, Ireland that makes liquor, and yes they know what the name means.  If you doubt it, check out their April Fool's Day post from this year...just delightfully dirty.  Once you're past the name, though, you've got to have a good product for me to care, and boy do they. I'm joined by Laura Bonner, founder of Muff Liquor Company and probably the closest connection I'll ever have to Jimmy Carr and Ed Sheeran.

Bren Foster is a man on a mission. Fresh from the positive reactions to his blistering 2024 martial arts revenge drama, 'Life After Fighting' - which also marked his directorial debut - Bren is now keen to show the world a new kind of action hero. The former soap star, who made his name on shows like 'Days of Our Lives' and 'Home and Away', is now capitalising on his incredible martial arts abilities to star in more fight films. His next will be an MMA actioner with Russell Crowe and Luke Hemsworth, called 'Beast in Me', in which he also provides fight choreography. This will be music to the ears of many martial arts movie fans who, before 'Life After Fighting', could only glimpse at Foster's extraordinary physical abilities in small bursts - like on the documentary series, 'Fight Science', or his roles in two Steven Seagal films, 'Maximum Conviction' and 'Force of Execution', or on the small screen in the series, 'The Last Ship'. If anything, 'Life After Fighting' saw Bren making up for lost time, throwing himself into every aspect of the film - providing roles for his own family and casting many of his students, and even filming at his own martial arts school. As well directing, he writes, stars, produces, and provides fight choreography. Despite its low budget, the film still packs a major punch, and was one of my favourite fight films of 2024. We discuss a life dedicated to the martial arts and competition, the toils of low-budget filmmaking, working with Steven Seagal, and his next steps in an already fascinating career.LINKSBren Foster on IMDb: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm1248409/Bren Foster on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/brenfosterreal/Bren Foster on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/brenfosterofficialBren Foster profile on Kung Fu Movie Guide: http://kungfumovieguide.com/profile-bren-foster/ Bren Foster on 'Fight Science': https://youtu.be/cU4j-t2oYA0'Life After Fighting' trailer: https://youtu.be/KMdiYlC_cA8'Life After Fighting' review on Kung Fu Movie Guide: http://kungfumovieguide.com/life-after-fighting-2024/Watch 'Life After Fighting' on Paramount Plus UK: https://www.paramountplus.com/gb/movies/video/JPOVHXAdlJw50eEVsCzk8tXMySV_yp9P/ Hosted on Acast.

After ten long years of podcasting, it's come to this: another What's New to Netflix commentary episode. We give a full-length commentary to a movie streaming now on Netflix, though in the case of this title, you might have to watch it somewhere else, unfortunately. If you do end up getting the chance to view this flick from the comfort of your couch, you'll be joining us as we watch The Nice Guys, starring Russell Crowe and Ryan Gosling, who, as the poster suggests, are "not that nice." Shane Black directs this goofy period neo-noir from 2016 featuring lots of heavy drinking and limbs getting injured. It's a groovy scene, man! WARNING: This is not a typical episode of What's New to Netflix. This is an audio commentary. This episode is meant to be listened to while you watch The Nice Guys. If you try to listen to this episode and you are not watching The Nice Guys along with us, a lot of this will not make any sense. got a suggestion for the show?: whatsnewtonetflix@gmail.com

WARNING! This post and episode both contain spoilers!We are back to discuss Gladiator II, the sequel to Ridley Scott's smash hit Gladiator (2000). Gladiator II is set in the joint reign of Caracalla and Geta. These emperors were brothers in real life, but not the creepy twins shown in the movie. However, let's not get caught up in historical detail! After all, Lucilla should have been executed by Commodus in the first film if we were sticking to the facts.In Gladiator II, we learn that Lucilla's precious son, Lucius Verus, was hidden away in the provinces after Commodus' death and became alienated from the imperial family. He clearly inherited the military skills of his real father (Maximus or Russell Crowe), as Lucius is something of a local hero in his new home.But no one can resist the power of Rome forever. After a military defeat, Lucius ends up in the arena and spends the film wrestling with his past, his trauma and the corruption of Rome. Just like his dad!Whilst Lucius Verus is the hero of this film, as is so often the case in movies about Ancient Rome, the villain steals the show. Macrinus (Denzel Washington) is a master manipulator, skilfully playing a dangerous political game. Will the ghost of Maximus past allow Lucius to finally set Rome on a virtuous path? Or is Rome doomed to be dominated by corrupt politicians? And boy, do we have a treat in store for you all! We were privileged to talk to a giant in the field of classical reception, a man who has spent many decades studying Roman history on film.Martin M. Winkler is Distinguished University Professor and Professor of Classics at George Mason University in Northern Virginia. His research interests include classical mythology, Roman history, classical literature, the classical tradition, and classical literature, history and myth on film. Professor Winkler's list of publications is long indeed, but we will cite a few of our favourites. The Roman Salute: Cinema, History and Ideology (2009), Ovid on Screen: A Montage of Attractions (2020) and most recently, Classical Antiquity and the Cinematic Imagination (2024). Professor Winkler has edited and contributed to volumes on the films Troy (from 2004), Kubrick's 1960 Spartacus, and importantly for today, Ridley Scott's original 2000 Gladiator.We hope that you enjoy our conversation with Professor Winkler in which we discuss:The characters of Maximus and Lucius VerusThe aesthetic of Gladiator IIThe representation of the army and praetorian guard in the sequelThe Roman Senate of Gladiator IIHistorical accuracy in Gladiator IIFor our full show notes and transcript, head over to our website: https://partialhistorians.com/2025/04/03/special-episode-gladiator-ii-with-professor-martin-m-winkler/ For our full show notes and edited transcripts, head on over to https://partialhistorians.com/Support the showPatreonKo-FiRead our booksRex: The Seven Kings of RomeYour Cheeky Guide to the Roman Empire Hosted on Acast.

Producer Doug Wick takes us behind the scenes of the legendary Gladiator and its highly anticipated sequel, Gladiator II. Initially marketed as a fight movie, it attracted mostly men; however, Wick shares how the dramatic and harrowing themes drew in female audiences, transcending the film beyond its action elements. He shares his firsthand experience working with visionary director Ridley Scott and how Scott's detailed storyboarding for both films streamlined the shooting process and created a clear vision for the cast and crew. From collaborating with Gladiator icons Russell Crowe and Joaquin Phoenix to assembling an all-star cast for Gladiator II, including Paul Mescal, Denzel Washington, and Pedro Pascal, Wick offers thrilling insights into the epic world of the Gladiator franchise.

Hi everyone, welcome back to TV Reload! I truly appreciate you tuning in for today’s episode, featuring two powerhouse content creators at the top of their game in scripted drama—John Polson and Bruna Papandrea. They join me to discuss their latest project, The Last Anniversary. Bruna Papandrea is an acclaimed Australian film and television producer and the founder of Made Up Stories. Before that, she co-founded Pacific Standard with Reese Witherspoon. Her impressive resume speaks for itself, with hits like Big Little Lies, Nine Perfect Strangers etc. The list goes on. Plus the feature film, The Dry, and the sequel to that, Force of Nature. It’s an absolute honour to have her here to discuss this exciting new TV series, now streaming on Binge and Foxtel. Joining her is John Polson, the director of The Last Anniversary. I’ve been a huge fan of his work since the ’90s, ever since I saw him in The Sum of Us alongside Russell Crowe. Over the years, John has made a remarkable transition behind the camera, working out of New York and making a significant impact in film and television. He’s also the creative force behind Tropfest, the world’s largest short film festival, which has supported countless emerging filmmakers. In this episode: • Bruna shares her favourite Liane Moriarty book and the three key elements she looks for when choosing a story. • John explains how directing a TV series differs from filmmaking and what unique challenges come with signing onto a project like this. • We uncover some fascinating behind-the-scenes details—Did Liane Moriarty want a role in the series? Has Bruna ever considered acting herself? • Plus, we’ll discuss the stellar cast, including Miranda Richardson, why this series has a broader appeal than some of Bruna’s past projects, and an update on Big Little Lies Season 3 (which Liane just finished writing this week!). There’s so much to dive into, with plenty of exclusive insights. So sit back, relax, and enjoy as we explore the incredible world of The Last Anniversary, streaming weekly on Binge and Foxtel!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Fáilte ar ais chuig eagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo ar an 7ú lá de mí Aibreán, liomsa Lauren Ní Loingsigh. I 2000 rinne ionsaí ar Michael Smith, an tAire Cosanta, ó ardoifigeach airm de bharr na áis a bhí ann do na trúpaí. I 2017 bhí daonra sa tír seo nach mór 5 milliún arís, an chéad uair ón ghorta. I 1989 bhí ach cúpla míle idir dhá uachtarán nuair a sheas an ceannaire Sóivéid sna meáin in Éirinn sa tSionainn. I 2000 bhí Aer Rianta I dtrioblóid de bharr nach raibh cóireáil camrais don chríochfort nua ag aerfort na Sionainne a chosain 27 milliún punt. Sin Westlife le Fool Again – an t-amhrán is mó ar an lá seo I 2000. Ag lean ar aghaidh le nuacht cheoil ar an lá seo I 1962 bhuail Mick Jagger agus Keith Richards le Brian Jones don chéad uair I Londain. Bhí sé ag seinm giotár le banna ceoil Alexis Korner, Blues Incorporated. Agus gan mhoill tháinig siad le chéile mar The Rolling Stones. I 1985 chan Wham! I mBéising don chéad uair agus bhí sé am mór mar bhí siad an chéad bhanna cheoil ón iartharach chun seinm sa tSín. Chan siad os comhair 12,000 duine. Agus ar deireadh breithlá daoine cáiliúla ar an lá seo rugadh aisteoir russle crowe sa Nua Shéalainn I 1964 agus rugadh amhránaí Anne-Maire sa Bhreatain ar an lá seo I 1991 agus seo chuid de a amhrán. Beidh mé ar ais libh amárach le heagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo. Welcome back to another edition of Ar An Lá Seo on the 7th of April, with me Lauren Ní Loingsigh 2000: Defence minister michael smith was subjected to an attack by a senior army officer over facilities provided for troops. 2017: Ireland was heading towards a population of five million for the first time since the Famine. 1989: Just a few miles separated the two presidents as the soviet leader stepped into the world media limelight at shannon. 2000: Aer Rianta came under fire for its failure to provide a sewege treatment plant for the new £27 million terminal at shannon airport. That was Westlife with Fool Again – the biggest song on this day in 2000. Onto music news on this day In 1962, Mick Jagger and Keith Richards met Brian Jones for the first time at Ealing Jazz Club in West London. Jones, who went under the name Elmo Lewis, was playing slide guitar with Alexis Korner's band, Blues Incorporated. Shortly afterward, they formed the Rolling Stones. In 1985, Wham! performed in Beijing, a groundbreaking moment that made them the first major Western band to appear in communist China. They sang before an audience of 12,000 in the city's Peoples' Gymnasium. And finally celebrity birthdays on this day – actor Russell Crowe was born in New Zealand in 1964 and singer Anne-Marie was born in the UK on this day in 1991 and this is one of her songs. I'll be back with you tomorrow with another edition of Ar An Lá Seo.

We finally did it! After months of promises we finally got around to covering the (probably) last of Sony's Spider-Man-less Spider-Man movies. It's 2024's Kraven the Hunter, starring Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Ariana DeBose, and Russell Crowe. After a cold open action sequence in a Russian prison that serves as Aaron Taylor-Johnson's sizzle reel for his Bond audition, we are transported to the distant past of probably around 2012. Sergei (Taylor-Johnson) and Dmitri (Fred Hechinger, the Tim Robinson-looking fellow who played Caracalla in Gladiator II) Kravinoff are taken out of boarding school by their mob boss father Nicoli (Crowe) after their mother's suicide. The best healing can only be done once they hunt down a lion serial killer in the savanna named Zar. Unfortunately, Zar gets the drop on Sergei and he's horribly mauled. However, the lion's blood, combined with a magic potion administered by passer-by Calypso (DeBose) brings him back to life AND gives him Captain America-level superpowers. He leaves home and heads to Siberia to murder poachers and hone his skills. Years later, Dmitri is kidnapped by rival mob boss Aleksei (Alessandro Nivola) a.k.a. the Rhino, who he got a surgical procedure to turn into a rhino man unless he's constantly pumping anti-rhino venom into his body through a backpack. Sergei, now going by Kraven, goes off on a series of expensive-looking adventures to save him. Can Kraven save his brother in time? Who's really behind this kidnapping? And, most importantly, when does Kraven get his VEST? You'll have to listen to find out!

Grab your hunting gear and journey with us in to the jungles of Africa, the hunt the most dangerous game possible, a Sony spider-verse movie. We watched Kraven the Hunter starring Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Ariana DeBose, and Russell Crowe. But first we highlight another prominent female voice, as part of our spotlight during women's history month. Then we play a Catch that Quotable that has us feeling nostalgic. Then finally we get into the movie Kraven the Hunter. We talk about plot holes, accents, and Sony's decision making.

This week on Forgotten Cinema, The Mikes are diving into Michael Mann's The Insider (1999), starring Russell Crowe and Al Pacino in a tense, real-life whistleblower drama about Big Tobacco, journalism, and corporate corruption.But while Mike Field considers it a masterpiece of slow-burn storytelling, Mike Butler has broken Field's heart by thinking it's too long! So, does The Insider earn its nearly 160-minute runtime, or could it have used some editing? The Mikes break down the performances, Mann's signature style, and whether it still holds up today.So, grab your popcorn and soda, please notice the exits to the left and right of you and settle down for Forgotten Cinema. What do you think? Masterpiece or overlong? What's your favorite Mann film? Let us know in the comments!

Gladiador cumple 25 años. Ridley Scott y la precisión histórica, no Máximo logró restaurar la República en Roma no hace cientos de años, sino hace apenas 25. Gladiador, la película de Ridley Scott ganadora de cinco premios Oscar, pero también nominada a 6 premios de la Academia de Ciencia Ficción, Fantasía y Horror de los Estados Unidos, cumplió ya un cuarto de siglo. Gladiador inauguró toda una época, hizo de Russell Crowe una figura más que internacional y se convirtió en la segunda película que más recaudó en taquilla en el 2000, solamente detrás de Cómo el Grinch se robó la navidad… Nada mal. Con una secuela estrenada en 2024, considerada un clásico por toda una generación, muchos la revisan hoy solamente para señalar sus errores en cuanto a precisión histórica. ¿Es válido o útil ese ejercicio? Para platicar del tema y de este peliculón invitamos a este podcast a Veka Duncan, Historiadora y Divulgadora del Arte, autora y admirada por toda la redacción de Cinegarage. Felices 25 años Gladiador. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Take the survey now: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1iHRZvOly_Q7aprlQBF7n38y0EjgvnHw2OdYII8yQElc/edit?ts=670d0111 Rob is joined by Johnny Garrett, founder of William Wood Watches, which he created with just 25k and crowdfunding. They talk about the luxury watch market including its dramatic post-COVID crash and the rise of independent watchmakers. Johnny reveals how his grandfather's firefighting legacy was the inspiration behind building a British watch brand that incorporates genuine upcycled firefighter equipment. From celebrity collectors like Kevin O'Leary and President Biden to Johnny's journey from banker to watchmaker, this episode provides a fascinating look into entrepreneurship, watch industry disruption and why traditional luxury brands might be taking advantage of their customers. REVEALS: How William Wood Watches incorporates genuine upcycled firefighter equipment, honouring Johnny's grandfather's 25 year firefighting career. How Johnny started William Wood Watches at just 25 years old while maintaining his banking career The company produces about 3,500 watches annually priced between £1,000-£4,000, with limited editions like the 30-piece "King's Coronation" watch dramatically increasing in value, selling out instantly. The high profile customers that buy William Wood Watches, including President Biden (whose watch was presented in the Oval Office), Kevin O'Leary and Russell Crowe. Why Johnny believes the luxury watch market crashed post-COVID How William Wood is expanding beyond direct-to-consumer sales into B2B government contracts. That watch brands claiming "in house" manufacturing primarily use this as marketing justification for charging premium prices. BEST MOMENTS "I believe if a Richemont Group bought it, Jesus, they could take William Wood Watches into the billions in revenue. Every single country in the world has a fire service. Our vision is to convert fire stations all around the world into our concept stores." "The whole reason we're in business is to be able to produce watches that you can actually wear on a daily basis and appreciate. Now there's so much supply in the marketplace that you are struggling where to be able to make these purchases." "I used to fall for that, I've got loads of limited edition APs, which, you know, they're limited edition, so they're the ones that will go up in value and they haven't gone up in value because they make a new limited edition, a new one, and a new one." "This is the reason why we're seeing such a rise of independent brands. We've seen in the last three years, the amount of customers who now know more or want to educate themselves on other independent sort of lesser well known brands." "I think society is celebrating the wrong businesses. We are feeding a conversation around entrepreneurs who have these big billion dollar companies with huge employees, potentially masses of debt. I think we should be celebrating more the entrepreneurs turning over maybe into the single digit millions."
