Geektown Radio 111: Logan Makeup & Effects Artist Joel Harlow, UK TV News & UK TV Air Date Info!

On this week's episode of Geektown Radio, we have all the usual tv, game and film chat, plus we talk to our very first make up artist. But he's not any old make up artist... He's the Academy Award winning, makeup and special makeup designer of Logan, Joel Harlow! Joel is one of the most innovative makeup and special makeup artists and designers in film today. His CV is frankly, ridiculous, from aging (and de-aging) Hugh Jackman and shaving Stephen Merchant for Logan, to creating makeup for aliens in the Star Trek movies, to working with Johnny Depp on pretty much all of his more recent films, including the Pirates of the Caribbean movies. He's worked with Spielberg on A.I., Chris Nolan on Inception, The Wachowskis on The Matrix movies, and Ron Howard on The Grinch. He's even worked with Joss Whedon on our beloved Buffy The Vampire Slayer. We got to have a chat with Joel about all of the above, whilst he was in a windy parking lot in Atlanta... Which might not sound all that glamorous, but he was in the middle of working on Marvel's upcoming Black Panther film! Also On This Week's Show: Matt returns to the co-hosting chair, so we talk about gaming, films, trailers and the latest tv shows including Star Wars: The Old Republic, Bill Nye Saves the World, Doctor Who, and the Cloak & Dagger and Krypton trailers. We chat about the possible upcoming US Writers Strike, and how it may affect things. We take a look at all the latest tv news from the UK and the USA including TV renewals, the Netflix remake of Monkey, Disney's live action roleplay hotel idea, and the return of Strike Back. We give you our recommendations for upcoming TV in the next 7 days.
