In August Entertainment One will be releasing 10 Cent Pistol. The film is about two brothers who deal with the L.A. underworld.

I spent a few minutes on the phone with them both, and it was a great time. We talked about the movie, brothers, and folding your pizza. Want to know what that’s all about?

Every science fiction fan knows who David Hewlett is. I’ve been a fan since his first appearance as Dr. Rodney McKay on the original Stargate SG-1.

He wrote and directed the film which stars his old Atlantis buddy Jason Momoa, the future Aquaman.
