“Normal” is a 2025 American action film directed by Ben Wheatley and written by Derek Kolstad, based on a story by Kolstad and Bob Odenkirk. Odenkirk also stars in the film alongside Henry Winkler and Lena Headey. The film premiered in the Midnight Madness program at the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival and received positive reviews for its practical action, small-town dark comedy, and Odenkirk’s performance. Odenkirk and Wheatley were kind enough to spend some time talking with us about their work and experience making the film, which you can watch or listen to below. Please be sure to check out the film, which will be released in theaters on April 17th by Magnolia Pictures. Thank you, and enjoy!
