In this episode of Film Stories with Simon Brew, two films that both interested Oscar-winning directors - and ended up with different ones.
Steven Spielberg was originally pursuing directing Interstellar. But it was in part for reasons not related to the film he stepped away - and Christopher Nolan took over.
The big screen take on the musical Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber Of Fleet Street meanwhile had Sam Mendes linked for a while. But it'd be Tim Burton who steered it to the screen - and the trailer proved to be quite infamous.
Stories of both are told in this episode.
