Samuel L. Jackson Interview

Before Now Playing Podcast, there was Snakes on a Podcast.

Hosted by Arnie and Marjorie, this five-episode limited series chronicled the internet phenomenon that was Snakes on a Plane in real time. From roundtable interviews at San Diego Comic-Con to an opening-night theatrical review, this was the show where it all began.

Interview Episode 4 – Samuel L. Jackson

The series builds to its biggest guest: Samuel L. Jackson. In this Comic-Con roundtable, Jackson talks about taking on the role of FBI agent Neville Flynn, keeping the film’s now-legendary title intact, and leaning into the over-the-top insanity that fans demanded. Charismatic, candid, and completely aware of the cultural moment, Jackson explains why sometimes the best move is to give the audience exactly what they came for.
