Listen "Legacy Sequels: No Way Home… Or Is There?"
Episode Synopsis
When we last saw our heroes, it was years, maybe even decades ago. Now they are back, older and wearier, but we are thrilled to see them again. They have new allies. Our story follows a new hero or several figuring out their place in a universe. If you’ve seen a story like this recently, it was probably a legacy sequel. The popularity of Spider-Man: No Way Home, Ghostbusters: Afterlife, Creed, and other films sets up this conversation between Ben, Caleb, and Larissa as we take our own journey into the world of continuations, years after the last film in a franchise featured a hero we know and love. The live action Scooby-Doo films are the subject of this episode’s Spotlight. Our guest is Brittany Smith and she is introduced around the 01:02:25 mark.
