Mimi Leder on The Morning Show
Podcast: Origin StoriesRating: Explicit Published On: Wed Oct 01 2025
Description: Mimi Leder is a producer, director, and two-time Emmy winner. Among her credits are films like Deep Impact and On the Basis of Sex and television programs like The Morning Show, a critically-acclaimed drama now entering its fourth season on Apple TV. In this episode of Origin Stories, she talks to Matthew about the establishing the tone of The Morning Show, the importance of creative synergy with actors and staff, and learning to honor both her experience and her gut instinct. “It’s really a process,” she says, “because something that may work on set doesn't always work editorially. Or maybe a sequence becomes something completely different than what you imagined it to be. Or it becomes even better than you thought it would be. It's very interesting: You make a movie three times. You write it, you direct it, and then you edit it. And you're remaking it every single time.”See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
