Todays guest is Fredrik Wikström Nicastro, the producer behind A Man Called Otto starring Tom Hanks. Welcome to a special international episode of the Road to the Movies podcast. A Dark Label Production in collaboration with Moviezine, Swedens biggest movie website and Tellus story – Home of creators.
Follow the 10-year road to getting a 50 million dollar Hollywood movie made from Sweden. From almost remaking Snabba Cash with Zac Efron, to Borg VS McEnroe with Shia LaBeouf, financing and selling the high concept thriller Horizon Line starring Allison Williams (Whose new film MEGAN is opening alongside OTTO) and pre-selling it at a profit. To an unexpected call from Tom Hanks management during Oscar night. This episode is basically Hollywood film school from an international perspective. I’m your Host Mauricio Molinari, a filmmaker from Chile living in Sweden and co creator of the Cannes winning Warner Bros series Partisan.
