Nerdacy: Kevin MacDonald is famously known for directing The Last King of Scotland, which won Forest Whitaker an Academy Award for Best Actor, and now he’s taking his first step into action-thriller with his latest film, Black Sea. Starring Jude Law, Black Sea is about a submarine captain who takes a job with a shadowy backer to search the depths of the Black Sea for a submarine rumored to be loaded with gold.

WGTC writes: Last week I had the opportunity to talk with Ronan and Macdonald while they were at the Four Seasons Hotel in Los Angeles, California for the How I Live Now press junket. In our exclusive video interview, they spoke about the challenges of adapting Rosoff’s novel for the big screen, how Ronan handled her character’s transition from being neurotic to strong-willed, how the songs in the soundtrack were chosen, and much more.
