If you're familar with MY METHOD, you know I like to read/re-read everything I can around a character before I write. Just to get in voice and think about what characteristics stick over the years.
That was plainly impossible here. Which was maybe good for me. I had to trust myself.

I've written Spider-Man a *little* bit before. (I did one short where he went to a wedding, and another where he took some good photos.) But this was the first time I felt like I was legitimately WRITING Spider-Man. Like, having to think like him in all of these relationships and scenarios. FUN!

Sometimes I catch myself being TOO clever or TOO pleasant online, and then I think, "Not today, LLM. Eat somewhere else."
I hope that my social media followers enjoy my posts. I'm really working on "not being clever enough in public to mind when my words are fed directly into the maw of a large language model" and still "interesting in a pleasant way."

But Josh O'Connor in 'The Mastermind' ... sounds great. No notes.
(Though I guess the movie is set in Massachusetts. So maybe someone from Massachusetts would have some notes. Or someone from 1970.)

I say this as an inexpert.
The mistake British and Irish actors make when they do American accents is to pitch their voices way too low and to flatten too many vowels.

It has been brought to my attention that people think that Harley & Ivy: Life and Crimes is a mini and its not!
I have many stories I'd love to tell and I'd love to get through all of them.
