    Blink with Stephen Gaghan | Development Hell

    Blink with Stephen Gaghan | Development Hell

    It’s the mid-2000s, Malcolm and writer/producer Stephen Gaghan (“Traffic”, “Syriana”) are running around Hollywood pitching their scripted adaptation of Blink. This conversation starts with a failed vampire love story, takes a ride in Leonardo DiCaprio’s Prius, before making an unexpectedly heartbreaking turn that leads Stephen to walk away from the project forever.

    The Variable Man with Gary Goldman and Angus Fletcher | Development Hell

    The Variable Man with Gary Goldman and Angus Fletcher | Development Hell

    Gary Goldman was a writer on “Total Recall”, a Philip K. Dick adaptation directed by Paul Verhoeven and starring Arnold Schwarzeneger. It was a big hit. So why do Gary and his writing partner, Angus Fletcher, have so much trouble selling another Philip K. Dick adaptation? They tell Malcolm that it all came down to a roller coaster ride of plot twists that even A-List action actors couldn’t stomach, and an early attempt at AI that was too dumb to pick a smart script.

    Bubbles with Isaac Adamson | Development Hell

    Bubbles with Isaac Adamson | Development Hell

    This is the story behind a biopic about a chimpanzee named Bubbles, sidekick to the King of Pop. Malcolm talks with the writer, Isaac Adamson, about the project’s rise and fall. Netflix optioned the script, a director was attached, and then… everything fell apart. In the episode, Isaac reads from his 2015 Black List winning script, and he and Malcolm consider whether now is the time for “Bubbles.”

    The Birthday Party with Charles Randolph | Development Hell

    The Birthday Party with Charles Randolph | Development Hell

    Before Charles Randolph won an Oscar for writing “The Big Short,” he adapted a memoir called “The Birthday Party”: the true story of a white man kidnapped by three young Black men. Is there a way to bring a story like that to screen, in a way that's honest and authentic? Randolph gives us a masterclass on a screenwriter's many minefields.

It is just that good!

This podcast ist so Informative, challenging, and engaging. I love it! Thank you for sharing your research and option.

Some episodes are excellent

….others are a bit pretentious and self-indulgent. More NPR than BBC.

But I disagree

Oh No Waymo! Malcom is. fun to listen to an extremely compelling, but I doubt the Waymo will catch on in Rome. The euphoria will be short lived when people in underprivileged areas realize they could highjack millions of dollars worth of equipment with a beachball.
