Phoebe Judge and Lauren Spohrer, co-creators of hit podcast Criminal, are set to turn the true crime audio series and its spin-off This Is Love, into scripted series as they look to take advantage of the podcast “explosion”.
The pair, who run and own Criminal Productions, told Deadline that they are also looking to expand the range and breadth of podcasts that they produce, while also innovating their existing shows.
In a wide-ranging interview, the pair lifted the lid on the booming audio market and how they’ve been working with Hollywood talent agency UTA and podcast network Radiotopia to further the medium.
Criminal, which features close-end episodes of up to 30 minutes, tells stories of people who’ve done wrong, been wronged, or gotten caught somewhere in the middle, while This Is Love investigates life’s most persistent mystery. Criminal is at AMC, while This Is Love is currently in...

We look back at Farley Granger's movie career, from the two masterpieces he made with Alfred Hitchcock to Luchino Visconti's operatic melodrama Senso
Spotted doing a cockney accent in a play while still at high school, Farley Granger was signed to a seven-year deal by MGM in 1943 and soon put to work alongside Anne Baxter and Dana Andrews in The North Star, a pro-Soviet war film about the sufferings of a Ukrainian village under the Nazi yoke.
With a script by blacklistee Lillian Hellman, The North Star – later reissued under the title Armored Attack! – was cited by the House Committee on Un-American Activities as a prime example of Hollywood communist propaganda.
After one more film – The Purple Heart (1944) – and a spell in the navy where he discovered his bisexuality, Granger found himself cast in what would become his breakthrough film, They Live by Night. Shot in 1947, Nicholas Ray...

Give it up for Ragtime, a sweeping, ambitious revival that, with the election of Barack Obama, carries added resonance. The musical, an adaptation of E.L. Doctorow's novel about early 20th-century America, is moving, stirring and not to be missed. Real historic figures, like anarchist Emma Goldman, Harry Houdini, Evelyn Nesbit and Booker T. Washington, loom over a narrative that tackles a time of extraordinary social, economic and cultural change. To capture the era's pain and promise, three distinct narratives dovetail: a wealthy Wasp household with Father (Ron Bohmer) and Mother (a beautifully layered Christiane Noll); Tateh, a Jewish immigrant (a splendid Robert Petkoff) feverishly working to make a better life for himself and his young daughter; and a Harlem couple, Sarah (Stephanie Umoh) and musician Coalhouse Walker Jr. (Quentin Earl Darrington), struggling with a troubled love affair. But revolution -- personal...
