Since 2001, Chris Hewitt has written for arguably the world's best-known movie mag, Empire. He talks about his journey from a small Irish town to the London office of the great mag via a very 'ambitious' job application. Since then he has hosted their celeb-drenched award show and, since 2011, their podcast, as well as been critic on Lauren Laverne's BBC6 Music show and various TV appearances such as Film 2017. He talks about these, Evil Dead 2, film set visits and his love for R.E.M.
