Hosts: David McVay, Josh Philpott & Richard Gray
Welcome to the brand new Film Actually News for July 1st, 2012. This week: The Starship Troopers remake, The Game of Thrones Bush Scandal, new Aussie thriller Mystery Road, RZA is putting the F-U in Kung Fu, Disney develops Big Hero 6, Lego Superheroes and the new trailer forLooper. All this and much more!
What used to be a boring, stuffy film section of the Film Actually podcast has been spun off into it’s own, we hope, more entertaining show. We don’t make the news, we just have fun with it. Film Actually News – Loud, Fast and Under Thirty Minutes… or your money back.
