Tell us what you though of the episode

šŸŽ™ļø On this episode of the Kingdom of Dreams Podcast, we sit down with screenwriter and producer Gary Goldman, best known for co-writing the sci-fi classic Total Recall and serving as Executive Producer on Minority Report. We explore how the futuristic worlds imagined in these films—once pure speculation—are now unfolding in our present day, raising questions about technology, surveillance, and free will. Gary also reflects on the creative and production challenges that Total Recall faced in its second half, offering rare insights into the evolution of a film that became a genre landmark. It’s a conversation about vision, perseverance, and how cinema’s imagined futures often collide with our reality.

Gary Goldman is an American screenwriter and producer known for his work on major studio films, particularly in the action and science fiction genres. He co-wrote the Arnold Schwarzenegger hit Total Recall (1990), adapting Philip K. Dick’s story into a blockbuster that combined sharp political undertones with high-concept thrills. Goldman also worked on Big Trouble in Little China (1986) and Navy SEALs (1990), contributing to their mix of pulp adventure and genre-bending storytelling. Beyond his credited works, he has been involved in numerous high-profile script rewrites and unproduced projects, making him a familiar figure in Hollywood development circles. With a career spanning decades, Goldman has earned a reputation for tackling imaginative, large-scale narratives that balance spectacle with subversive ideas.
