341. Greg Rucka on supernovas, comics and screenwriting

Greg Rucka is back on track. We literally roll right into this podcast today… and don’t have a formal start, so take this intro as my hello-hello! Welcome to a very typical Mimi and Greg Show! Our show opens with Greg’s fascination with “The Deep Sea” by Neal Agarwal. Go ahead and click on the link and see how addictive it is. This quickly brings us to the Titan submarine that went missing and our fears of the deep ocean. Also, if you’ve ever wanted to hear Greg do the voice of a manta ray, this is the episode for you. Science very much became the topic of conversation as he shared some fascinating facts about the potential supernova Betelgeuse. Lazarus fans, there are no spoilers, but Greg does address the hiatus and plans for the release schedule. Heart of Stone on Netflix starring Gal Gadot releases on August 11 and although Greg is credited with the story by and co-writing the screenplay, he shares the behind-the-scenes actuality in the making of films. Always a fun time with my dear friend. For those that don’t already know: Greg Rucka is a New York Times bestselling author of hundreds of comics and nearly two dozen novels. He is also the writer for his critically acclaimed and award-winning film The Old Guard starring Charlize Theron. I’m loving these conversations and hope you are too.
