Ron Howard Talks 'Thirteen Lives,' 'Apollo 13' & More

Ron Howard joins the show to talk about his new film Thirteen Lives, his career, and more. We sat down with Ron Howard at the SCAD Savannah Film festival, and the filmmaker opened up about films from across his career including Apollo 13 and its parallels to Thirteen Lives. 

Also this week, we react to news of James Gunn and Peter Safran being appointed co-chairmen and CEOs of DC Studios, overseeing DC’s film, TV, and animation projects. We also react to the previous weekend’s box office results, Ant-Man & The Wasp: Quantumania’s new trailer, and review the powerful new film Till which hits theaters this weekend.
