Rock 'n Roll Ghost S5 E09 - Filmmaker Peter Segal (Heels)
Welcome back to the Rock 'n Roll Ghost Podcast. On this week's episode, the Ghost speaks with filmmaker Peter Segal (Tommy Boy, Naked Gun 33 1/3, 50 First Dates, My Spy, Anger Management) about his work directing six of the eight episodes in the debut season of Heels (begins August 15 on Starz). Starring Stephen Amell (Arrow) and Alexander Ludwig (Vikings), Heels is about a Georgia family involved in independent wrestling and the drama that surrounds them. Segal discusses making the show in the era of Covid-19, how Jack Nicholson got cast in Anger Management opposite Adam Sandler, Leslie Nielsen forgetting who he was after they made Naked Gun 33 1/3, working with a variety of former wrestlers in his career (Dwayne Johnson, Dave Bautista) and much more.
