‘28 Years Later: The Bone Temple’ Director Nia DaCosta on Cillian Murphy’s Big Cameo: ‘I Was Gagged’

‘28 Years Later: The Bone Temple’ Director Nia DaCosta on Cillian Murphy’s Big Cameo: ‘I Was Gagged’

With all that being said, they were so supportive, and for a franchise film, a studio film—I mean, technically it’s an indie, because it’s negative pickup [Ed. Note: This means that Sony agreed to buy The Bone Temple after it was finished]—but still, it’s a lot of money, and everything I wanted I got to do, and the collaboration was beautiful. What was the nature of that collaboration? Did you have any oversight from Alex or Danny at all? Did they give you any guardrails? There weren’t guardrails, really. There were things about the world and the lore that we had to ensure made sense. If you go on Reddit, the fans can be pretty fastidious. It’s really intense. I used to be a very online nerdy fan as well, and I still have that spirit within me, so I get it. But no, they’re producers on the film, and they’re also directors, so I’m always nervous walking into that space, being like, “Oh, are they trying to get me to direct it in the …

‘Love Story’ Exclusive: First Look at Ryan Murphy’s JFK Jr. and Carolyn Bessette

‘Love Story’ Exclusive: First Look at Ryan Murphy’s JFK Jr. and Carolyn Bessette

Kicking Love Story off with Kennedy Jr. and Bessette was Murphy’s idea, though the series was created by Connor Hines, who serves as an executive producer and wrote six of the nine episodes. “There is no American crown. There isn’t a monarchy here. There’s not that culture,” Simpson explains. Unless, of course, you’re talking about the Kennedys. JFK Jr. “came the closest that we ever had to an American prince. We all saw him grow up. We saw him lose his father. We saw him go to college, go to law school. He had the same obsessive following that the princes in England did.” And who could resist telling the story of how America’s prince found his Cinderella? Bessette wasn’t exactly toiling in obscurity before she met her Prince Charming; she grew up in Greenwich, Connecticut, after all. But through her own tenacity, talent, and, yes, effortless beauty—she was voted “Ultimate Beautiful Person” in high school—Bessette created a glamorous life for herself in New York. “She was somebody who had been a shopgirl in Boston, …

The Beauty Exclusive: Ashton Kutcher Enters His Villain Era in Ryan Murphy’s Nihilistic New Series

The Beauty Exclusive: Ashton Kutcher Enters His Villain Era in Ryan Murphy’s Nihilistic New Series

The Beauty is based on the eponymous 2015 comic book series by Jeremy Haun and Jason A. Hurley. Murphy and series cocreator Matthew Hodgson optioned the rights nearly a decade ago, long before the release of 2024’s similarly themed body-horror film, The Substance—starring Kutcher’s ex-wife, Demi Moore, in a performance that earned the actor her first Oscar nomination. But Kutcher can’t really speak to any similarities between the two projects. When asked about comparisons between the two, Kutcher shies away from his Zoom camera, lowering his voice to a whisper: “I haven’t seen that film,” he says sheepishly. But he does have another comp in mind for The Beauty. “There was a movie that Bradley Cooper did where a drug made him hyperproductive, Limitless. I read that script, wanted to do it—but they hired Bradley instead. Good choice, he’s great.” His new show has a similar premise. “I love this notion of giving people some superhuman capability that is not 10 steps removed from today, but two steps removed from today. I think that’s always …
