In this episode of the Filmumentaries podcast, I interview Ivor Powell, a prominent producer and writer known for his work on iconic films such as 2001: A Space Odyssey, Alien, and Blade Runner. The conversation delves into Powell's early career, his experiences working with legendary directors like Stanley Kubrick and Ridley Scott, and the creative processes behind some of the most influential films in cinema history. Powell shares insights on the importance of luck in the film industry, the challenges of budgeting for major productions, and the lasting impact of films like Alien and Blade Runner on the genre.
