SPIT w/David Wenham and Jonathan Teplitzky

To celebrate the release of SPIT, a new Australian crime comedy, I talked with star David Wenham and director Jonathan Teplitzky about the first time they read GETTIN' SQUARE, their attraction to the familiarity of the character, de ja vu making SPIT, and a cheeky PUBLIC ENEMIES story for good measure.

Synopsis: Ex-con Johnny Spiteri returns to Australia 20 years after the heist that concluded GETTIN' SQUARE to face old enemies, make new friends in detention, and teach his version of Australian mateship while staying ahead.

SPIT will be released in Australian cinemas on March 6, 2025.
