Michael Waldron

Um, but like- They were like, "We don't do showrunners," because they didn't really wanna, like, empower anyone that much with the TV shows because it was still very much like this is all under the MCU dome.

And so I remember talking to Jac Schaeffer and Matt Shakman, um, you know, and, and Waldron and Kate Herron about Loki and stuff like that, and they'd talk, they would talk about this process where, um, eh- you know, and we'll talk about this a bit when we talk about, like, Darcy and, and Jimmy and the way that they're used in this episode, where basically, like, uh...

Here was the description.

It was like you are one car on a train.

Here's my defense of Wanda, and I, and I feel like...

And I know, I know you're not, you're not saying this, but I, I, I just feel like, and, and, and it, a lot of this unravels with what happens with Multiverse of Madness, which I think is a huge misstep, uh, i- in terms of where we leave this character at the end of the show and then where we find her in Multiverse of Madness.

Like, you know, we love Michael Waldron.

We, we, we have a lot of admiration for the storytelling in general.

We feel like, uh...

We know, um, Michael Waldron's working on a Nova movie.

Mm-hmm.

Are they gonna introduce him in Secret Wars? Um, is there gonna be a new Xandar area-

You can also peek at the discord over Vanessa Baden Kelly's script for The Lanterns episode three to see the power of a fully written script where everything has a meaning or even more than one meaning.

Doomsday's script is credited to Marvel vets Michael Waldron, Stephen McFeely, Chris McKenna, and Eric Sommers.

But there have been...

There must have been something on the page.

I know.

Uh, yeah, 'cause Waldron is in that too.

Uh, but it was getting me excited.

They were talking about Doomsday and I don't know if you saw some of these quotes but, uh, they were saying that McFeely specifically had some, like, big ideas both from kind of a blockbuster like really fun mashup-type things, but that there was one specific idea that kind of unlocked it and that it was actually a lot more of a, like, an emotional thing than it, than it was like a spectacle thing.

It might have...

I, I've heard rumors that it's been changed to a movie, so maybe it is.

I think Michael Waldron's attached to it.

I think that's right.

Now we're getting Nova movie, right?

Supposedly written by Michael Waldron.

They keep talking about it for like 10 years.

It's a moving target.

Was-

There's a lot of-- W- Michael Waldron, who was a writer's PA-

Right

... on, uh, Community, is, uh, one of the biggest writers in the world now.

The flip side of all of this is that you get more on your money in the bank when interest rates are higher.

Certificates of deposit, high-yield savings accounts, those rates close to 5% now on your savings, Michael.

Yeah, a lot of people feeling, feeling the pinch though.

Thank you so much for that, Elizabeth.

Trevor Ault is there with the latest.

Good morning, Trevor.

Good morning, Michael, and so many people are reeling from this tragedy here in Los Angeles.

These journalists up in the air reporting live and suddenly plunging down in a fiery explosion, and now investigators are here on the scene, but that broadcast footage from inside the helicopter could be crucial in figuring out what went wrong.

Uh, but uh, y- you know, o- on the flip side, Nova's movie is finally getting, uh, some shape, too.

Uh, writer Mike Waldron, uh, did confirm the movie will have to address the Nova Corps getting wiped off, uh, screen bef- before Infinity War.

That's how that movie opened, so maybe we'll see something about that.
