I personally put Ted up there in the pantheon with my favorite sci-fi writers, and I’m hugely touched he’s presenting Looper at SIFF. If you’re in the area don’t miss it, this should be a fun night. www.siff.net/programs-and...

French title of @rianjohnson.bsky.social second movie The Brother Bloom❤️❤️❤️

I’ve recommended this app to more close friends than I can count. Got no affiliation with it at all (and it works in limited cities) but I’m spreading the word because I swear to god it has changed my movie-going life and we must keep it alive. apps.apple.com/us/app/parad...

Reposting this because I revamped my site and the link changed. Added the script for Wake Up Dead Man to my site. This is the final shooting script, it has stuff that was cut and moved around, which I think is more interesting than a conformed cleaned up version. Enjoy! rian-johnson.com/scripts

I dug into a delightful Thursday puzzle in today’s NYT Wordplay column. Puzzle spoilers ahoy. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/04/c...

Always love my conversations with Jesse, and this was a great one.

This is true and I was the only one on set excited about it (and playing the song on my phone to blank stares)

Hey. I directed @rianjohnson.bsky.social’s WAKE UP DEAD MAN Notes of a Scene for @vanityfair.com and which I basically co-opted so I could talk to Rian about writing murder mysteries. (Filmed at the Toronto International Film Fesrival 9/7/25) youtu.be/98ArZ8w5K9s?...

For @ebertvoices.bsky.social, had a spiritual conversation with @rianjohnson.bsky.social about WAKE UP DEAD MAN. We talked faith, studio notes, finding his own road to Damascus, why Josh O’Connor is the modern Jimmy Stewart, how cinema became his church, and more 📽️ www.rogerebert.com/interviews/c...

If you're near Chicago and the suburbs, Classic Cinemas is still playing it at most of their locations--which is how I got to see it!
