You know his face and have felt his presence. Israeli-born Oded Fehr studied acting at the Old Vic in London and first made a vivid impression on movie audiences in The Mummy andThe Mummy Returns. Since then he has dodged stereotype casting, agreeing to play a terrorist in the TV series Sleeper Cell because it was a three-dimensional character. He then forged a new path in Star Trek: Discovery and Starfleet Academy. He is a charming, well-spoken man who belies the villainous image that gave him his first opportunities on screen. You can see his latest feature film, Grizzly Night, on Video on Demand.

Andrew shares his reaction to 28 Years Later, including what makes it feel gritty, intense, and true to the franchise's DNA.

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Season 3 When Star Trek: Strange New Worlds premiered as a spin-off of Star Trek: Discovery, many fans were over the moon with the return to episodic televisions with tie-ins to The Original Series. For a time, it felt as if Trek's golden age was back. But as the series evolved, the producers and writers began to see it as a playground for experimental storytelling within the Roddenberry framework. In this episode of The Ready Room, hosts C Bryan Jones and Larry Nemecek look back at Season 3 and ask how well the limited 10-episode canvas was used and how the writers' strike impacted the quality of the stories and continuity of the stories as we examine each episode one by one.

Einmal mehr finden die Podcast-Aufnahmen parallel zu großen Ereignissen der Weltgeschichte statt. Weinkönigin Jürgen könnte nicht einmal darauf anstoßen – er mag gar keinen Sekt. Stattdessen gibt er umfassend Auskunft über seinen Streaming-Musikkonsum des vergangenen Jahres – Top 5, Lieblingsalbum und sein geschätztes Alter inklusive. Außerdem hat er die „Assassins Creed Shadows x Attack on Titan“-Collab gespielt. Amazon liefert derweil weniger Spiele für Prime-Mitglieder. Liegt es an Deutschlands hohen Retourenzahlen? Online darf auch im Beatles-Shop geordert werden, unter anderem die neueste „Anthology“. Und was Carl Orff mit Depeche Mode zu tun hat, behandeln wir ebenso versiert wie britische KI-Proteste, „Dr. Mabuses Meisterwerk“ und die Lachgruppe der kommenden Fußball-WM, in der Deutschlands Weiterkommen alles andere als garantiert ist. Roland ist erstaunt: Jürgen kennt die legendäre deutsche Spielezeitschrift GEE noch nicht. Apropos Spiele: „Starfleet Academy“ ist nicht nur ein gut gealterter Weltraumklassiker von Interplay, sondern im kommenden Jahr auch eine Art SF-„Beverly Hills, 90210“, zum Glück in der Zeitlinie von „Star Trek Discovery“. Derweil kratzt „Star Citizen“ mit rund 900 Millionen US-Dollar an der Einnahmen-Milliardengrenze und will 2026 tatsächlich den Kampagnenmodus veröffentlichen. Zum 40. Jubiläum nennt sich die altehrwürdige Game Developers Conference um: Im März lädt das GDC Festival of Gaming zur Eröffnungsfeier ins gemietete Baseball-Stadion von San Francisco ein. Dass es auch eine Nummer kleiner geht, zeigen Rolands Dauerbrenner „Honkai: Star Rail“ und Jürgens 8-Bit-Aktivitäten anlässlich einer Reportage zu den Oliver Twins. Oder das Traumschiff in Neuseeland. (Aufgenommen am 6. Dezember 2025)

Recorded live at the Toronto International Film Festival, David Peck sits down with filmmaker Bryan Fuller to discuss Dust Bunny, Fuller's darkly playful and deeply personal feature debut. What begins as a conversation about genre influences, Frankenstein, Blade Runner and Gremlins, turns inward, as Fuller reflects on childhood fear, imagination, and fairy tales. Together they explore how the film reframes monsters as emotional realities rather than fantasy creatures, and how humour, wonder, and visual style create both distance and healing. Dust Bunny emerges as a story for adults that is frightening, funny, and so tender. Bryan Fuller is an acclaimed writer, producer, and filmmaker celebrated for his visually striking, emotionally complex storytelling. He is best known as the creator of genre-defining television series including Hannibal, Pushing Daisies, Wonderfalls, and Dead Like Me, as well as his work on Star Trek: Discovery and American Gods. Across television, Fuller has built a reputation for blending dark humour, heightened fantasy, and deeply human themes, often exploring identity, trauma, and transformation through bold, imaginative worlds.With Dust Bunny, his feature-film debut, Fuller brings his singular voice to cinema. Premiering at TIFF's Midnight Madness, the film merges fairy tale, horror, and wit into a deeply personal story rooted in childhood fear and resilience. Whether working in television or film, Fuller continues to push genre boundaries, crafting stories that are visually lush, emotionally resonant, and unafraid to confront the monsters—real and imagined—that shape us.David Peck is a writer, speaker, and award-winning podcaster who works at the intersection of storytelling, social change, and meaningful dialogue. As the host of Face2Face and former host of Toronto Threads on 640 AM, he has published over 650 in-depth interviews with some of the world's most compelling thinkers, artists and storytellers, including Viggo Mortensen, Sarah Polley, Raoul Peck, Werner Herzog, Chris Hadfield, David Cronenberg, Gillian Anderson and Wade Davis.With a background in philosophy and international development, David brings a thoughtful, globally aware perspective to every conversation. He's a published author and experienced keynote speaker, known for creating spaces where complexity is welcomed and ideas come alive. Whether moderating panels, hosting live events, or speaking on issues ranging from ethics to media, David's work is grounded in a deep curiosity about people.At heart, he simply loves good conversation and believes it's one of the best ways we grow, connect, and make sense of the world.For more information about David Peck's podcasting, writing and public speaking please visit his site here.F2F Music and Image Copyright: David Peck, ICBL and Face2Face.

Childhood fears, bedtime monsters, and the hazy membrane between imagination and trauma collide in “Dust Bunny,” the feature directorial debut of Bryan Fuller, a filmmaker whose storytelling instincts have always lived in the space between the two B's - beauty and brutality. It is a film that feels handcrafted out of nightmares and fairy-tale sugar, a creature feature through the eyes of a child who sees the world in magic and menace at the same time. Rich with color, shadows, and emotional ambiguity, it is unmistakably a Bryan Fuller movie, which is to say that it's tender, violent, mischievous, and sincere in equal measure.Joining The Discourse in today's episode is Bryan Fuller himself, the writer and director behind shows like “Hannibal,” “Pushing Daisies,” “American Gods,” and “Star Trek: Discovery” (in its early days). Fuller's signature blend of genre storytelling and emotional excavation finds a new form here as he steps behind the camera for his first feature-length film, crafting a story about a little girl who hires a hitman to kill the monster under her bed and discovers that nothing is simple when your fears have roots. The film stars Mads Mikkelsen, Sigourney Weaver, David Dastmalchian, Sophie Sloan, and Sheila Atim.

How do you grieve the impending death of a lifelong friend when you are a multi-hyphenate comedian, actor, director and producer? If you are Tig Notaro, you produce a film about their life and work — as she has done for the late spoken word poet Andrea Gibson with the documentary Come See Me In The Good Light. Best known for her dry-witted stand up comedy, Tig is also a podcaster (Handsome), actor (Star Trek: Discovery, The Morning Show), director (Am I Ok?) and producer for film and television. Kara and Tig discuss the documentary, Gibson's life and relationship with their wife Meg Falley after they were diagnosed with incurable cancer, how Andrea's death opened her up to experiencing grief in a new way, and how it all relates to Tig's own 2012 cancer diagnosis, which she shared on stage in a genre-breaking set. Plus: how the comedy world is shifting under Trump and Tig's plans for an all-lesbian action film. Questions? Comments?

Ortegas quickly discovers that a female Gorn pilot is also stranded, but the Gorn saves and protects Ortegas from the moon's dangers. Initially wary due to her traumatic experiences with the Gorn, Ortegas befriends the pilot and discovers that they are not so dissimilar—the two work together to find a way off the moon.

In its third season Strange New Worlds has gone a long way towards living up to the first word in its title. From its inception, the pre-Kirk (somewhat) Enterprise series promised to avoid the long drawn out arcs that bogged down its predecessor Star Trek: Discovery. No one anticipated the bizarre, random, series of non sequiturs we've been served up this season. While there have been some funny bits, and a few noteworthy bits, most of the seven episodes to date have left viewers scratching their heads. This week, Barry, Brian, Dave and Tod break down the season so far and ask, can the series be saved? Opinions vary, mostly About "Four and a Half Vulcans." There's also a round of What's in the Box and the usual random topics. Thanks for listening!
