S17 Ep882: Midnight Run (1988, W❤️M, w/ Mayday filmmakers John Francis Daley & Jonathan Goldstein)

“I always wanted to see a cop car crash because of this movie!” - Eric on Midnight Run

On this very special episode of WHM, which also happens to be the Season 17 premiere(!), we’re so stoked to be chatting with John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein, the writing/directing duo behind hilarious films like Game Night and Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves, about their new action-packed buddy comedy, Mayday, while also breaking down one of their, and our, favorite buddy action/comedies, the great Midnight Run!

How much of a fantastic casting decision was it pairing Robert De Niro and Charles Grodin? Has anyone actually been on a plane with a spiral staircase? Was there anyone better than Dennis Farina? How great is all the location shooting here? And good lord, look at all the places De Niro is finding to smoke in this movie! PLUS: Check out John & Jonathan’s hilarious new action comedy, Mayday, available on Apple this Friday, September 4th!

Midnight Run stars Robert De Niro, Charles Grodin, John Ashton, Dennis Farina, Joe Pantoliano, Richard Foronjy, Robert Miranda, Jack Kehoe, Wendy Phillips, Philip Baker Hall, and the late, great, Yaphet Kotto as Agent Mosely; directed by Martin Brest.
