JOE & ANTHONY RUSSO talk 21 BRIDGES, AGBO Films and More – Exclusive Interview

 

Firmly ensconced in the record books thanks to the MCU and AVENGERS: ENDGAME as the highest-grossing film of all time, not ones to sit on their laurels, JOE and ANTHONY RUSSO have expanded their cinematic endeavors with their new company AGBO Films. Creating a mecca for collaboration and mentorship for writers, directors, producers, editors, and more, not to mention an expanse fully equipped with stages, post-production facilities, and in-house screening rooms, the aim of AGBO is to create thoughtful stories and quality films; the kind of films the Russos like to make. The first film produced by the Russos under the AGBO banner is 21 BRIDGES starring Chadwick Boseman who also serves as a “boots on the ground” producer.

We go in-depth with the brothers talking about 21 BRIDGES, and their all-inclusive involvement with the production, how it was humanly possible to produce 21 BRIDGES while still in post-production with “Avengers: Endgame”, bringing in veteran cinematographer Paul Cameron, first-time feature helmer Brian Kirk, long-time collaborator composer Henry Jackman, working with scribe Matt Carnahan, the power and magic of Boseman, casting, and more. Plus, hear what’s in store for Joe and Anthony, and moviegoers, with AGBO.
