That's a wrap on THE LIFE OF CHUCK. This has been a tenacious little miracle of a movie from the start & I'm forever indebted to this wonderful cast and crew. This film is deeply special to me, and I'm elated that it's going to exist in the world.

A few minutes ago we wrapped production on THE FALL OF THE HOUSE OF USHER, closing a huge chapter of my life. I've worked in Vancouver almost nonstop since BLY MANOR in 2019. We made 4 series in 3 years, only taking a short break for the COVID lockdown in early 2020.

In addition to being horribly unfair to the cast and crew, this also underscores the importance of physical media. WESTWORLD is available on blu-ray, but this will happen to shows that aren’t. The cancellation of a series is sad enough - but the erasure of a series is horrifying.
'The removal of shows from HBO Max means WB Discovery is able to save money in residuals paid to cast and crews of productions, on top of the money saved by not continuing with the shows at all.” Literally how middle class actors survive.

This is true. She never does the same thing twice. Much to appreciate about the great Katie Parker. Even I have a hard time remembering she was Poppy Hill, she disappeared so completely into that part...
A Katie Parker appreciation post. Because of all Mike Flanagan's recurring actors, this chameleon actress is so good at losing herself in her characters that she rarely gets recognized.

You’re not imagining it - we mixed the tricycle sound into the car shot. Couldn’t resist.
Re-watching Doctor Sleep and when Dan drives over that surface in the car (at 1:36:08), it kinda sounds like the same sound the tricycle make on the floor of the Overlook (at 03:49).
