Stanley Tucci

Starting over can feel heartbreaking and overwhelming, especially after losing a loved one, and the idea of rebuilding a life can seem impossible. In this episode, Stanley and Geri show us that sometimes moving forward isn’t about letting go of the past, but learning to carry it with you in a way that allows life to continue. Stanley Tucci speaks with brave honesty about the death of his first wife, Kate – the guilt he felt as he tried to move on and the difficult choices he faced while creating a new life for his children. Geri Halliwell Horner reflects on losing her father as a teenager, how that loss shaped her ambition and how writing her novel unexpectedly helped her make sense of long‑held grief. This episode explores love, loss and the resilience that allows us to keep going after such events. I hope it brings you a sense of solidarity or confirmation that we don’t need to erase what came before; sometimes, it becomes the very force that helps us begin again.

Two divine guests this week as Ralph Fiennes and Stanley Tucci join Simon to discuss ‘Conclave’, the papal political thriller from ‘All Quiet on the Western Front’ director Edward Berger. Set in the Vatican’s pontific conclave, where cardinals are sequestered during the selection of the new Pope, the film follows the taut power struggle as these men of the cloth vie for the Catholic Church’s top job. The pair talk faith and doubt, Isabella Rossellini, and whether those robes can possibly be comfortable??? We find out whether Mark thought the film was a spiritual experience, or should be atoning for cinema sins... As well as Conclave we’ve got reviews this week of ‘Moana 2’, sequel to the 2016 Disney smash where this time the Polynesian not-a-princess must journey to the lost land of Motufetū to lift a curse from her island community—and ‘Your Monster’, the comedy-horror-musical mash-up that sees dumped and depressed actress Laura unexpectedly reunited with the childhood monster from under her bed. Plus your stellar correspondence adds more names to the overly-polite Brits abroad league table, and we’ve got more on Galdiator II space monkeys too. Our Christmas Spectacular with Mark and Simon live onstage at London’s Prince Edward theatre is now sold out!

Stanley Tucci is in East Hampton with Ina Garten and our lives may never be the same. Stanley begins by whipping up Ina's first EVER gin martini while they munch on Oysters Rockefeller that Ina finished making just before Stanley's arrival. Then the two have a sit down at the table where they discuss love, life, family and food. Stanley has the entree covered with a show-stopping Cacciucco, (bless you!) Then its off to the beach for some gorgeous cold brews and a final round of rapid fire questions followed by staring out at the sea. This episode is one for the books!

Welcome to the Munsons at the Movies Podcast. Each episode we delve into the filmography and impact of a randomly selected actor. In this episode, we explore the career of Stanley Tucci. Best known for his roles as Secondo in Big Night (1996), George Harvey in The Lovely Bones (2009) and Caesar Flickerman in The Hunger Games franchise, Tucci has been giving bald guys a good name in the acting scene since the 80s. Joined by guest Munson, Geoff Reid of the From First to Last Podcast, we discuss Tucci's early days as a Levi's Jeans model, Sir Geoffrey's unfortunate run-in with a Pauly Shore movie, Stanley's tendency to play a baddie, and examine just how closely he has flirted with the EGOT. Where does Tucci's career rank on the Munson Meter? Listen to find out.
