Adam McKay might be having a great time with his latest movie Don’t Look UpOn Sunday night, he is vying for Oscar glory and his TV show Succession topping everyone’s list for the year’s must-watch, but it seems even he can admit to a mistake.
“I f***ed up Vice,” he told the UK’s Sunday Times, referring to his 2018 Oscar-nominated biopic of Dick Cheney, which saw Christian Bale winning a Golden Globe for his transformation into George W Bush’s controversial vice president. McKay said that McKay was speaking to the broadsheet. “I regret not giving more blame to the Democrats, who went along with the war in Iraq.”
He revealed, “I had a heart attack in postproduction. I made mistakes, read the reviews and went, ‘Yes, fair.’”
McKay seemed less philosophical regarding critics who added to the pile. Don’t Look Up. He said, “No comedy is for everyone. It was still shocking to see the fury of critics.
“Critics are split. But, whatever. It was made for a global audience to call out a system ignoring the greatest threat to human life in history — climate crisis.”
The world is still waiting for the fourth season. Succession – of which McKay will only reveal that showrunner Jesse Armstrong has shared with him the plot and, “It’s a humdinger” – the director has turned his attention to another pantheon of ambition, ruthlessness and pursuit of glory, the NBA. His drama show, Winning Time: Rise of the Lakers DynastyThe premiere of, which was broadcast on HBO in March and made its UK debut last week, was shown. McKay hopes that it will appeal to a wider audience than just avid basketball fans. It explores race, class, and sexism in late 1970s America and its heroes, such as Magic Johnson and Jerry Buss, and McKay hopes it will be a hit with a wide range of viewers. John C Reilly and Jason Clarke are stars, as is Rob Morgan, Adrien Brody, Rob Morgan, Gaby Hoffmann and Rob Morgan.
McKay said that McKay spoke to Central Recorderday Times. “We tell it like it’s the reign of Louis XIV. Nothing matches that era for sheer hedonism.”
Deadline revealed previously that McKay also collaborated with Billy Ray, a writer-director.
