Game Night (2018) and Disney's Hercules (1997)

Film Stories with Simon Brew - A podcast by Simon Brew - Mondays

Categories:

In the latest episode of Film Stories with Simon Brew, a film that came together after a very brief pitch, and a movie whose price rocketed due to external factors. Jason Bateman was at one time in line to direct the comedy/thriller Game Night  - but a change in writers meant a change in plan. Disney's Hercules, meanwhile, came very close to casting Jack Nicholson - until a Batman problem surfaced. Stories of both are discussed in this episode.
