Episode Transcript
Direct from Hollywood with Ryan Seacrest.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
Director Boots. Riley's upcoming film, I Love Boosters is a
highly stylized wild ride. Like all of boots movies could
only have been made by him.
Speaker 3 (00:14):
So just look at this cast for I Love Boosters,
Keiky Palmer, Demi Moore, Will Poulter, Don cheatle Asa Gonzalez,
and Lakeith Stanfield.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
Boots is a world builder, and Leakeith tells Deadline Boots
provides a huge canvas for actors to work with, but
he also has an extraordinary tension to detail.
Speaker 4 (00:33):
Yeah, la Keith says he could ask Boots anything about
the world he's created and he'll have an answer.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
Well, it's because Boots essentially becomes a fanboy of his
own creations, which I love. He compares it to the
way people get clinically obsessed with Star Wars. As we know,
they'll know about some machine that only exists on the
fourth planet, particular solar system that you've never seen ever
on the Scream.
Speaker 3 (00:54):
So when he's writing a script, he gets that obsessed
with the details of the world and it all comes
alive on screen.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
I Love Boosters. It's in theaters May twenty second.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
That's direct from Hollywood,

Ryan Seacrest

Kingdom of Fraud
It’s the unlikeliest of criminal partnerships: a devout polygamist from an insular Utah sect joining forces with a shadowy Armenian tycoon from LA. The result - a billion dollar fraud conspiracy. In Kingdom of Fraud, investigative reporter Michele McPhee traces the origins of the extraordinary alliance between Jacob Kingston and Levon Termendzhyan. Together, the two men trigger the largest tax investigation in American history and weave around themselves a web of dirty cops, influential political relationships and transnational money laundering. All this is set against the backdrop of Jacob Kingston’s clan – The Order. A powerful and secretive polygamist organization in Salt Lake City. To whom Jacob is desperate to prove his worth.
