Steven Spielberg interviewed by Simon Mayo

Steven Spielberg talks to Simon Mayo about his new film, Ready Player One.

[@zacspearman]

He'll probably fit another film in before 2019. Not a surprise, but damn can he get stuff made.

[@BugLondon]

You should see how many movies Takashi Miike makes.

[@TheSt1092]

Think he's starting to think about Indy 5 now.

[@Maximillionaire666]

I'm still hoping he gets around to remaking West Side Story soon, I'd kill to see what Spielberg's take on a musical would be, let alone the greatest musical of all time.

[@pierce8878]

Max Marriott He is currently working on it and has started a casting call for Spanish actors

[@eustacequinlank7418]

I thought the game they were going to feature on the Atari that had to be beaten at all costs would be E.T.

[@peterohara1]

Read the book years ago and seeing the film today. I bet that War Games scene was cut.

[@masseysmoviemadness1411]

That and everything else >

[@timothyw98]

I hope they don't cut the part with him going abit stern crazy held up in an apartment.

[@Nickydo111]

Or the blade runner scene, would love to see that

[@timothyw98]

Im slightly dissapointed that the reveal of aechs identity is done in the form of an action scene rather than the sombre drive scene in the rain from the book

[@timothyw98]

Oliva cooke is great in Bates Motel

[@ryang6931]

"faints"

[@TheSt1092]

Please don't make Indy 5.

[@joshuabell7761]

So what is the easiest movie he's had to make?

[@billkiller323]

Lincoln.

[@roathripper]

i would respect this man's work more if he had authored his own material.

[@januarybaby1063]

Watch Spielberg’s first film, Duel, then tell me he can’t author thrilling film

[@roathripper]

that was his grad film - doesn't really count. He has been mostly an interpretive artist his whole career.

[@farid1406]

Close Encounters of the Third Kind! Plus, being an interpretive artist is essentially what directing is. It's a legitimate artform in and of itself, and Spielberg *definitely* affects the development process on all the script he directs.

[@farid1406]

Sir Stevie didn't write Duel though

[@efcgarv]

Poltergeist, AI, close encounters duel and the Goonies.he has had a go. He tells stories through a lens

[@timy9197]

Steven Spielberg talking about movies. That is all...

[@RoodeMenon]

He dumped Robocolypse for RPO. I hope Steven will be healthy enough to do that movie some day.
