Listen "Filmmaker Timothy Bogart on his new film, "Juliet and Romeo""
Episode Synopsis
Why mess with Shakespeare's perfectly good script of Romeo and Juliet? In this interview, Tim Bogart, writer and director of Juliet and Romeo (release date, May 9, 2025), explains his reasons—historical, personal, and otherwise—for getting down and dirty with some wild revisions of Shakespeare's tragedy. He's got big ideas--and big stars--for what is the first of a planned film trilogy. Not to mention that Rebel Wilson's turn at Lady Capulet might be the best example of "playing against type" in recent memory.
