Take 149 - Writer Gary Whitta, Rogue One, See you in Hell
Thu Jan 15 2026
Rogue One writer Gary Whitta returns to the podcast and we talk…podcasts.
The British writer explains why he decided he needed to make a scripted podcast, casting Jon Boyega and how bad Hollywood is at the moment.
He talks us through where he sees the industry, the process of pitching this show and his views on taking notes.
In his usual witty, sardonic style, we also cover advice for writers, the frustrations of projects falling apart and the joy of creating again.
A very fun, irreverent and insightful romp around Hollywood with one of its sharpest minds.
