The Truman Show (1998) and Whiplash (2014)

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

In the latest episode of Film Stories with Simon Brew, two films that both ended up having to delay filming for their respective stars. The Truman Show (1998) was a breakthrough for Jim Carrey, but one crucial piece of casting went right to the wire, after Dennis Hopper departed the movie. With Whiplash, a delay to wait for one of its cast meant the film needed to be filmed, edited and completed in under two months - even when its director had what could have been a serious accident.   Stories of both are discussed in this episode.
