David Goyer talks FOUNDATION, Dark Knight trilogy, MAN OF STEEL & BLADE I Happy Sad Confused

David Goyer does not shy away from a challenge. Witness his current gig as the Executive Producer/director/show-runner for FOUNDATION. Now in its second season on Apple TV it’s an awesome undertaking considering its pedigree as one of the seminal works of sci-fi by the great Isaac Asimov. But Goyer’s resume is littered with such iconic properties. He was the writer of the BLADE trilogy, a huge creative force for the DARK KNIGHT trilogy, and so much more. David joins Josh to talk about it all including the one gigantic universe he’d still love to tackle. #happysadconfused #joshhorowitz #davidgoyer #foundation Make sure you SUBSCRIBE to the channel so you don’t miss any of Josh’s interviews!
