In this episode of Popcorn Unscripted, we sit down with indie filmmaker Austen Hamel to talk about his latest project, The Wanted: Part 1 — an ambitious, character-driven film that proves passion and creativity can thrive outside the Hollywood system.
Austen shares the story behind the movie’s creation, from early inspiration to the challenges of filming on a tight budget. We discuss his creative process, the lessons learned on set, and what it really takes to bring an indie vision to life. Whether you’re a filmmaker, a movie lover, or just curious about what goes into making a story from scratch, this is a must-listen conversation filled with insight, honesty, and love for the craft.
