hoping you have a few great lunches with Sir Ian.

edsolomon.bsky.social•82 days ago

Many wonderful evenings and days already

tomstow.bsky.social•83 days ago

Followed you for years across platforms, and you always come across as humble, thoughtful and empathetic. In addition to making you a pleasure to follow, I think it's part of what makes you such a great writer, and why you have so much versatility and longevity. You deserve every success!

edsolomon.bsky.social•83 days ago

Wow thank you Tom. And thank you for sticking by.

tomstow.bsky.social•83 days ago

You're more than welcome! It's been a pleasure.

James Corden can’t act and is an awful person, I hope he won’t be putting on an American accent. I am really tired of the British bad American accents in film and TV.

Sometimes dreams come true!

vdelorca.bsky.social•82 days ago

Unless Corden is a corpse in the first scene and then gone, HARD PASS…that guy is awful

mrmuse64.bsky.social•82 days ago

Ian is such a lovely man, had a great time working with him on Beauty and the Beast

simonziegler.bsky.social•82 days ago

There’s an actor who’s been ignored way too long. Can’t yuh write something for Grace Jones?

snarkylicious.bsky.social•83 days ago

Ah, this looks like a banger of a storyline and with McKellen, Coel and Soderbergh - a must see. Congratulations!

simplysusan.bsky.social•71 days ago

Don't go to brunch with Corden.

dave-mueller.bsky.social•83 days ago

That's fantastic man! Congrats!

baumer61614.bsky.social•83 days ago

I meant that in the most complimentary way

baumer61614.bsky.social•83 days ago

Soderbergh has yet to make even a marginal movie IMO

baumer61614.bsky.social•83 days ago

Congratulations!

edsolomon.bsky.social•83 days ago

Thanks bill

christlewhistle.bsky.social•82 days ago

Pretty tired of the one woman to three men ratio.

vornietom.bsky.social•83 days ago

Damn dude

Why is someone represented by multiple agencies, is it a "one for US, one for UK" situation or a difference between writing and producing, or something else?

otoole.bsky.social•83 days ago

Coel’s a hell of a writer, too. Good luck, Ed

brycenbeck.bsky.social•83 days ago

Ed! Congrats! When we think of Soderbergh, we’ll now also think of you. Party on!

hamo.bsky.social•82 days ago

So happy for you, Ed! I hope to work with you one day too!

christopherleone.bsky.social•83 days ago

Deeply honored

edsolomon.bsky.social•83 days ago

Thank you for allowing me to (finally) write about you.

christopherleone.bsky.social•83 days ago

I think we both knew it was inevitable

prex4.bsky.social•83 days ago

I remember you discussing how this came about on Word By Word, which ended with you saying to yourself, “I guess I’m writing this.”

Congratulations, Ed!
