Soundstage Access

What an honor to chat with Martin Campbell, a BAFTA-winning director whose credits include THE MASK OF ZORRO, GOLDENEYE and Daniel Craig’s first James Bond movie CASINO ROYALE... among many others! Today’s conversation marks the 15th anniversary of CASINO ROYALE, and in the episode we discuss how Martin started his career in the UK as a TV cameraman; why he turned down the opportunity to direct THE MASK OF ZORRO 3 times before getting the phone call from Steven Spielberg that finally convinced him; a tribute to his friend and composer, James Horner; his evolving relationship with the 007 franchise, and his approach to directing action on big and small budgets; the creative and commercial misfire that was GREEN LANTERN. All of this… and much more! Martin's latest movie THE PROTÉGÉ is available now to stream, and his next film MEMORY will be released in 2022.
