b'Today is the day, dear listener. Our hosts Giles Alderson, Tori Butler-Hart and Matt Butler-Hart welcome the one and only Sir Ian McKellen to the show. Yes, THE Ian McKellen.\\nYou probably know him from films like The Lord of the Rings series, the X-Men series, Mr Holmes (2015), The Da Vinci Code (2006), Infinitum: Subject Unknown (2021) by Matt & Tori, and many, many more.\\nGiles, Tori and Matt sat down with Sir Ian at his wonderful home to dive deep into his long acting career: Ian talks about when his love for theatre and movies began, the difference between acting on stage vs in front of the camera, and whether he watches his films.\\nHe also discusses what he\\u2019s looking for in a director, how he produced his film Richard III (1995), and his favourite and most challenging roles. He talks about the first film he has ever acted in that was never released, how you as filmmakers can approach him, and why it\\u2019s easier than ever to make a film.\\nThis was incredible. We hope this conversation inspires you as much as it inspired us. Sit back, relax, enjoy this week\\u2019s episode with the legend that is Sir Ian McKellen.\\n\\xa0\\nEPISODE LINKS\\nCheck out Sir Ian McKellen\\u2019s BLOG and his screenplay RICHARD III\\n\\xa0\\nPATREON\\nBig thank you to:\\nMarli J Monroe\\nWant your name in the show notes or some great bonus material on filmmaking?\\nJoin our Patreon\\xa0for bonus episodes, industry survival guides and feedback on your film projects!
