This week on talkabout with Ellis & Gwilym, we bring you our first instalment in a sub-genre of creativity. 'Cast Away' sees the lads create their own movie using character archetypes and filling them with a diverse cast.
This week, to be fitting with the season, the genre chosen was Horror, and a star-studded cast of impressive individuals were chosen to perform it (through the terrible vocal impressions of both Ellis & Gwilym). Rosamund Pike, Shia LaBeouf, Ana De Armas, Don Cheadle, Florence Pugh and Joe Keery were chosen to fill the roles. To clarify, this is all a fiction, no real film has been created and no actual cast members are involved...yet.
So with cast, composer and two unexperienced directors ready, buckle in for a cliche-filled story full of fun and the occasional bad American accent.
Do not fret, we still start with our News Reviews & Recommendations section in which we cover a book, director's commentary, a Disney+ release and a mobile app. The boys had a lot of fun creating this episode, and can't wait for you to hear it. Let them know what you liked or didn't like via Twitter @talkabout_pod where we are excitedly waiting to converse with you about all of our episodes.
With thanks to @mr.interiordesign for the brilliant artwork and James Milsom for the spooky take on the theme tune. We also have an MCU film ranking coming up so get following ASAP to get involved.
Thanks and enjoy!
