Q&A: Screenwriter Justin Rhodes (“Second Sun”)
Back in July 2011, I posted this:
Warner Bros. acquires sci-fi spec script “Second Sun” from writer Justin Rhodes. Per Hollywood Reporter:
Story is an adventure set on another planet with twists.
Rhodes is repped by ICM and manager Kevin Donahue.
Some background on Justin:
Justin Rhodes writes, directs, and lives in Los Angeles. He came to filmmaking by way of animation after a detour through architecture. In 2011 he sold his spec “Second Sun” to Warner Bros. after developing it with producer Scott Aversano. Earlier the same year, he sold a pitch to Summit for producer Wyck Godfrey and Temple Hill. In 2008 he directed a cheesy low-budget action movie on location in Trinidad called Contract Killers, and in 2010 co-wrote an indie political comedy called Grassroote for director Stephen Gyllenhaal starring Jason Biggs, Joel David Moore, Lauren Ambrose, Cobie Smulders, and Cedric the Entertainer. He drinks entirely too much Red Bull. If you find him laying dead from a heart attack, please inform the paramedics that it was probably a caffeine overdose in case they have stuff for that. If they do, he’ll owe you a life debt and be your own personal Chewbacca. If they don’t, he won’t be in a position to blame you for not being more helpful.

Justin was kind enough to do an interview with me. You may access all three parts below:
