    Once, Bright Angel

    Director/Executive Producer Shekhar Kapur returns to the podcast to discuss the Will finale with host Michael Wood and Creator/Executive Producer Craig Pearce, and to explain why he believes that if Shakespeare were to write a play about his life today, it would be similar to TNT's Will. The trio provide insight into Topcliffe's real-life undoing, how the fundamentalist natures of Robert Southwell and Topcliffe mirror the evil in today's society, the price of genius, and what it took to balance the series' political thriller angle with the personal love story between Will and Alice. Plus, they give background on the incredible cast whose amazing performances brought the series to life.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information. Learn more about your ad choices.

Craig shares the six-week trip to India that inspired his writing on Will, and also provides a detailed, behind-the-scenes look at the 5 acre backlot at the studio in Wales that became the show's muddy streets of London. You'll also discover more details about Will's set design, and the full scale theater interior built for Shakespeare's company.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
