#121. Writer/Director D.J. Caruso Discusses His Career & Hollywood

Tuesday, October 27, 2026 • Duration 51:46

Director and writer D.J. Caruso joins this episode of the Movies In Focus podcast to talk about his career and the ever-changing landscape of film.

Caruso has had an impressive career - making his feature directorial debut with the excellent Val Kilmer starring neo-noir, The Salton Sea before going on to direct Taking Lives with Angelina Jolie and Ethan Hawke, Two For The Money starring Al Pacino and Matthew McConaughey, Disturbia and Eagle Eye with Shia LaBeouf and a plethora of other mainstream movies. Meanwhile, his most recent film was 2024’s Netflix biblical epic Mary with Anthony Hopkins.

This is a wide-ranging conversation which touches on Hollywood of the past, present and future and offers a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at the film business. We also talk a little bit about John Badham's The Hard Way - an excellent action-comedy starring Michael J. Fox and James Woods - which Caruso worked on early in his career.

Caruso also discusses his upcoming screen adaptation of Welsh writer Dylan Thomas’ A Visit To Grandpa’s starring Anthony Hopkins and Catherine Zeta-Jones.
