**Minor spoilers for MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE - THE FINAL RECKONING**
We welcome on the show Hollywood composer Max Aruj, whose latest credit is MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE - THE FINAL RECKONING.
In today’s conversation, Max and I discuss his beginnings as a student at USC, how that led to being mentored by Hans Zimmer; also, the circumstances that led Max and Alfie Godfrey to be chosen as the young composers of this latest MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE, and the creative challenges behind the film's climactic sequence. All of this… and much more!

EP 52 | Marc Shaiman, Composer & Lyricist ('Hairspray', 'Mary Poppins Returns')
It was awesome to welcome on the show Marc Shaiman, a 7-time Oscar-nominated composer and lyricist whose credits include (among others) the musical HAIRSPRAY, and films like WHEN HARRY MET SALLY, SISTER ACT and MARY POPPINS RETURNS.
Today’s conversation is a masterclass in musical theater, as we discuss how a simple songwriting audition turned into Marc and his creative partner Scott Whittman writing the musical HAIRSPRAY; a deep dive into the making of MARY POPPINS RETURNS, and Marc’s emotional relationship to the musical legacy of the original film; the creative process writing songs for film and stage—from the blank page to the final recording. All of this… and much more!
Marc's next movie BROS (from NEIGHBORS director Nicholas Stoller) will be released in the Fall of 2022.
