MUBI’s multi-award-winning MUBI Podcast returns for an eleventh season. Titled Needle on the Record – Side 2, the audio documentary series revisits the theme of one of its most-streamed seasons, with a fresh exploration of the power of music in film. A special preview episode will launch on April 16, 2026 with the full series launching from June 4, 2026.

The latest episodes dive into the enduring impact of cinematic “needle drops” – moments where filmmakers deployed pre-existing music instead of an original score, for maximum impact. Across the season, host Rico Gagliano explores iconic musical moments that have shaped pop culture, from British pop and house, to bhangra and electronic dance in Gurinda Chada’s Bend it Like Beckham, to the ska and punk soundtrack of Shane Meadows’ This is England.

Guests this season include Jack O’Connell (This is England, Sinners), and Gurinder Chadha (Bend it like Beckham), alongside some of cinema’s greatest music supervisors, with further names to be announced.

A special preview episode, releasing April 16, spotlights Whisper of the Heart (1995) – the beloved coming-of-age classic from celebrated Director Yoshifumi Kondo, based on the original manga by Aoi Hiiragi and screenplay and storyboards by Studio Ghibli co-founder Hayao Miyazaki. Featuring its memorable use of the country classic ‘Take Me Home, Country Roads’ the episode unpacks the film’s surprising reimagining of the song to match its urban Tokyo setting and to deepen its emotional resonance.

The episode features interviews with the producer of the film and Studio Ghibli co-founder Toshio Suzuki and his daughter Mamiko Suzuki, who adapted the lyrics of the song with Miyazaki for the film. Host Rico Gagliano shared his excitement to cover the film’s beautiful use of the song:

“Growing up in ‘70s-era West Virginia, ‘Country Roads’ — basically a hymn to the state — was just always around, like oxygen. Learning Studio Ghibli made it kind of the same for ‘90s Japan has been a trip.”

The film will return to cinemas with an exclusive IMAX re-release by GKIDS across the US and Canada from April 21, newly remastered in 4K.

To celebrate the launch of Season 11, MUBI Podcast will also re-release standout episodes from Season 3: Needle on the Record throughout the month of May, including those dedicated to Chungking Express, Donnie Darko, and 2001: A Space Odyssey.

The Shaw Festival is advancing its bold movement for real human connection with the expansion of its innovative Positive Aging programming. New events and workshops will be developed over the next three years to shift the narrative around aging from ‘decline management’ to a powerful new focus on preservation through creativity.

“Positive Aging is not simply programming for older adults – it is a shift in how we understand aging itself. For too long, aging has been framed as a process of decline to be managed. At the Shaw Festival, we believe growing older is something else entirely,” said Pragna Desai, Shaw Festival’s Director of Community Engagement and Outreach. “We are proud to be at the forefront of advancing a new vision for aging – one defined by possibility, not by limitations, where older adults are active creators of culture, rediscovering their purpose, connections, and voices.”

Demonstrating the powerful role the arts can play in aging well, The Shaw’s new Positive Aging programming builds on the success of its innovative pilot programs developed for older adults over the past two years including classes in memorization techniques, theatre improv and dance and the acclaimed Defy Dementia™ event, developed by Baycrest and the Centre for Aging + Brain Health Innovation (CABHI).

The Shaw Festival’s expanded Positive Aging programming is made possible through a generous $5 million gift from the Weston family as part of The Shaw’s All.Together.Now. campaign. This contribution, alongside the generosity of other visionary donors, is enabling the Shaw Festival to create and offer thousands more positive aging initiatives, empowering older adults to explore their creativity, strengthen cognitive vitality and build meaningful social connections through theatre and the performing arts.

Registration Open for New Positive Aging Programs

Positive Aging events, workshops, performances and community partnerships will be featured in The Shaw’s annual calendar of events. Registration for new Positive Aging workshops in improv, voice control, scene study, memorization and dance is now open at shawfest.com/positiveaging.

Delivered by Shaw Festival artists and professional coaches, these programs are designed to celebrate lifelong creativity, build skills and strengthen social connections. With the expansion of its facilities, starting with the Shaw Artists’ Village this summer, and the new Royal George Theatre rebuild in the future, The Shaw will be able to offer more workshops and programming to more people, amplifying the impact of this critical work.

“At the Shaw Festival, positive aging isn’t about staying young; it’s about growing whole,” added Desai. “When older adults engage their creativity, we have witnessed them strengthen their emotional resilience and reconnect with their sense of identity, agency and purpose. The Shaw is proud to create spaces where imagination remains limitless, and where creativity continues to flourish in every chapter of life.”

These programming advancements demonstrate how the Shaw Festival is applying performing arts expertise in new ways to connect and uplift people of all interests and ages. Last year, the Shaw Festival offered more than 5,000 interactive experiences in addition to its exceptional theatre performances – piloting new events, programs, and educational initiatives designed to inspire and create belonging.

SYNOPSIS

Cronin is supported behind the camera by a team of sterling film artisans, including director of photography Dave Garbett, production designer Nick Bassett, editor Bryan Shaw, costume designer Joanna Eatwell, music by Stephen McKeon and casting by Terri Taylor and Sarah Domeier Lindo.

New Line Cinema, Atomic Monster and Blumhouse Present, A Wicked/Good Production, A Lee Cronin Film: LEE CRONIN’S THE MUMMY. The film will be distributed worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures, only in theatres and IMAX® in North America on April 17, 2026, and internationally beginning 15 April 2026.
