Leah Ettinger: https://www.butwhatireallywanttodoisdirect.com/#new-release Chris Ashe: Quiet on set! Aaaaand Action!!! This week on “When Can You Start?” we speak to legendary Hollywood director and author, Ken Kwapis! You may recognize his name as director of projects such as Malcolm in the Middle, He’s Just Not That Into You starring Ben Affleck, Scarlett Johansson, and Jennifer Aniston, and being one of the founding fathers behind The Office. While his resume may be extensive, he started off directing afterschool specials for CBS Afternoon Playhouse including the episode “Revenge of the Nerd.” That kindled a career that spanned over 40 years, solidifying his status as a television directing legend. But wait, there’s more! For a blast of nostalgia, you can see Ken’s latest work on Hulu “Malcolm in the Middle: Life’s Still Unfair”. Or you can stay tuned to learn about an incredible documentary about the Shaggs titled “We Are The Shaggs” which recently premiered at the South By Southwest Film Festival. For an even more in depth dive into the mind of Ken Kwapis, read his book, “But What I Really Want to Do is Direct” which is available on Amazon or by using the link below! https://www.butwhatireallywanttodoisdirect.com/#new-release
