    From Michigan to the NFL to acting: Terry Crews on his life and what it truly means to be ‘tough’
    Aug 17 2022
    Terry Crews didn’t have a typical journey into Hollywood. You may know him now as Lieutenant Terry Jeffords on Brooklyn Nine-Nine or as the host of America's Got Talent, but before all that, Terry was a professional football player — and before that, he was doing all that he could to get out of his hometown of Flint, Michigan. These are the stories that Terry writes about in his new memoir, Tough: My Journey to True Power. Terry tells Tom about his ever-evolving relationship with what it means to be tough, his turbulent NFL career and his rise in Hollywood.

  • David Cronenberg on censorship, the beauty of body horror and his newest film Crimes of The Future

    David Cronenberg on censorship, the beauty of body horror and his newest film Crimes of The Future
    Aug 3 2022
    For a guy who’s made legendary films like The Fly, Scanners and Shivers, you’d think David Cronenberg would be used to the feeling of releasing a new film. But as the Canadian director tells Tom Power, that’s not really the case. David says that every time he makes a new film, he feels incredibly exposed, like he’s opening himself up and showing the world the most vulnerable parts of himself. It’s similar to what the main character in his new film Crimes of the Future goes through, except Saul Tenser (played by Viggo Mortensen) is literally cutting himself open and giving the insides of his body to his audience as a representation of his creativity. David tells Tom why a film he wrote more than 20 years ago is more relevant than ever, how his home country of Canada wasn’t the most supportive of his films when he was starting out, and why he doesn’t see his work as body horror.
