Do not ever say that the Empire Podcast has a predictable roster of friends. For this week sees tennis legend John McEnroe sit down on Zoom with Chris Hewitt for a enjoyable chat about his profession, the brand new documentary McEnroe (which chronicles stated profession), and the quite a few cameos he is made (often as himself) in an array of movies and TV reveals. We can’t be critical? We could be critical. And do not name us Shirley. Chris can be joined by Elvis director Baz Luhrmann in an excerpt from our upcoming spoiler particular on that improbable fever dream of a film.

And, within the model new podbooth (really, the Jazz FM studio), Chris is joined by Ben Travis and Sophie Butcher for an episode through which they focus on the panels they need to see at subsequent week’s Comedian-Con, the week’s film information, together with the unhappy demise of the legendary James Caan, and evaluation The Grey Man – the film that sees the Russo Brothers reunite with Chris Evans – McEnroe, The Sea Beast and The Railway Kids Return. The Railway Kids have returned? YOU CANNOT BE SERIOUS, MAN! Get pleasure from.
