Michael Apted directing a WAB episode?
It’s amazing what you can find with Google Alerts. For instance, in this interview with Michael Apted, I found the following tidbit:
So now that you’re off the hook for another seven years, what’s on your plate for the near future? What do you have coming up?
MA: I’ve got a movie coming out in February about the anti-slave trade movement. That’s a feature film called Amazing Grace. I just delivered the official DVD of the World Cup. I’ve got another documentary about football that’s nearly done. I’ve just done a TV episode of my wife’s show, What about Brian? Also, I’ve just finished the sequel to Married in America. I don’t know when that’s coming out — I think in February of this coming year.
Wha’? You might not recognize Apted’s name, but take a glimpse at his IMDB, and you’re sure to go ZOMG!! Oh, and after a little digging, I figured out that his wife is none other than Dana Stevens, creator, exec prod and writer for WAB.
No idea what episode he may be directing (NO other news source has picked this up yet), but I’ll let y’all know once I find out
