Welcome to the brand new Film Actually News for August 7th, 2012. This week: Mel Gibson talks about Machete Kills, Marvel haggles for the return of its characters, Raging Bull 2 is back on again, Jumanji gets a remake, M. Night Shyamalan heads to TV and Sacha Baron Cohen parodies James Bond. All this plus the new trailer for Skyfall and much more!
Hosts: David McVay, Josh Philpott & Richard Gray
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.
