This is a 30-min conversation I had with Ari Aster, from July 10th 2025, which is just over a month before I officially started this podcast as "On Film...With Kevin McCarthy".
Therefore, this is technically not a podcast episode but just a 30-min filmmaking conversation that I still wanted to share, as you can see how the podcast was forming based on this conversation. A little over a month later, I'd launch my first official podcast episode with Josh Brolin on August 18th, 2025.
For more context of this conversation, Ari Aster and I are sitting in a filming location for Eddington; in Truth or Consequences, New Mexico. This interview was filmed after the production of the movie, during Ari's promotional tour of "Eddington".
We discuss Eddington, Midsommar, Hereditary, Beau is Afraid, Cinematography, Score, Sound Design and more.Original interview conducted on: July 10th, 2025. Original cut of the interview uploaded: July 24th, 2025.#ariaster #eddington #midsommar #hereditary #beauisafraid #cineamtography #filmmaking #movies

With the fate of their soldiers and the outcome of the war at stake, PRESSURE brings audiences behind the scenes of one of WWII’s most critical events.

TWO IMPORTANT NOTES: Since this interview was done via Zoom, in two different countries, there are some expected connection issues. Greig Fraser was nice enough to record solo audio on his end so that, in the event that the connection dropped, we could fill that audio in. Therefore, there will be times where you will hear his audio change slightly as I take his solo audio to cover the connection drop. It's only a few times during the episode but I wanted to point that out. You will also notice times where Greig's image freezes, slightly, while his audio is catching up. In those moments, you can still hear what Greig is saying. The second note is that when I spoke about the cinematographer of The Batman 2, I couldn't remember who had been announced. According to reports, Eric Messerschmidt will be the cinematographer on Matt Reeves' sequel.Episode 44 of "On Film...With Kevin McCarthy".
