Warren Ellis: Captured Ghosts
WARREN ELLIS: CAPTURED GHOSTS dives into the mind of "Internet Jesus" Warren Ellis, the futurist / philosopher / comic book writer / alt culture thinker behind the groundbreaking comics “FreakAngels,” “Transmetropolitan,” “Iron Man: Extremis, Planetary,” and “RED” (adapted into the blockbuster film starring Bruce Willis, Morgan Freeman, Helen Mirren, Mary Louise Parker, and John Malkovich). Featuring the most extensive interview Ellis has ever given, the film spans from his first memory watching the moon landing as a child to the boffo success of “RED.” Along the way, Ellis's acerbic wit and core belief in humanity come across like never before, revealing the unique point of view that has made him such a pivotal and influential figure. Featuring interviews with friends and collaborators including Helen Mirren (“The Queen”), Wil Wheaton (“Star Trek”), Joss Whedon (“The Avengers”), Patton Oswalt (“Ratatouille”), Stoya (adult film star), Brea Grant (“Heroes”), Claudio Sanchez (“Coheed & Cambria”), and Ben Templesmith (“30 Days of Night”). Directed by Patrick Meaney, following up his critically acclaimed documentary “Grant Morrison: Talking With Gods.”
