IGN UK Podcast #203: Ender's Game Special

In this special edition of the podcast, we sit down with director Gavin Hood and producer Roberto Orci to discuss their new film Ender’s Game.

Starring Harrison Ford, Asa Butterfield, Ben Kingsley, Viola Davis, Hailee Steinfield and Abigail Breslin, the film is based on Orson Scott Card’s bestselling science-fiction novel about a gifted 12-year-old who is trained to become earth’s ultimate military leader in the fight against an alien invasion.

In this extended interview we discuss the difficulties of adapting such a beloved book and talk about working with big-screen legends Kinsley and Ford.

We also discuss Orci’s forthcoming projects The Amazing Spider-Man 2 and reboots of Van Helsing and The Mummy, while Hood discusses the challenges he faced on the set of X-Men Origins: Wolverine.

So enjoy this sci-fi themed edition of the pod, and rest assured it will be business-as-usual next week.
