Following a screening of Steven Soderbergh's "Logan Lucky", Producers Mark Johnson and Reid Carolin attended a Q&A hosted by Cinema Series host Pete Hammond.

Mark Johnson is well known for his work on "Breaking Bad" which he also produced. He and Carolin were both excited to work on the film together along with one very special piece of talent. The film stars longtime friend of Carolin, Channing Tatum. The two have worked on many films together including "Magic Mike", "22 Jump Street" and "White House Down". 

This was also a first-time foray into comedy for Daniel Craig, who reportedly didn't break character during the entire shoot. 

Listen to the Q&A discussion about marketing the film, working with Channing Tatum, who was excited to represent the sort of people he'd grown up with, and the nonstalgiac and inexpensive soundtrack from the film.

Logan Lucky opened in theaters everywhere on Friday, August 18th.
