Schwarz-Weiß-Malerei ist seine Sache nicht, sagt der österreichisch-US-amerikanische Regisseur Robert Dornhelm. In der megateuren Serie Hunyadi lässt er derzeit im ORF und auf ORF On den ungarischen Titelhelden gegen seinen türkischen Gegenspieler mit Schwert und Armeen aufmarschieren. Im Serienreif-Podcast erläutert Dornhelm, warum große Serien sein "Lieblingsspielzeug" sind, was er von den Vorwürfen hält, Hunyadi sei Orbán-Propaganda, warum er gegen Schwarz-Weiß-Malerei ist, der Schuft trotzdem irgendwann leiden muss und wie es für ihn selbst weitergeht, nachdem sein Haus bei den Bränden in L.A. im vergangenen Jahr vollkommen zerstört wurde. Doris Priesching im Star-Talk mit Regisseur Robert Dornhelm.
