Popcorn Podcast welcomes rising star Madeleine McGraw to discuss her return as Gwen in Blumhouse’s Black Phone 2. In this spoiler-light interview, McGraw reveals how Gwen evolves from fearless kid to haunted teen; what it’s like sharing intense scenes with Ethan Hawke’s terrifying Grabber; and how Super 8 dream sequences blur reality in Scott Derrickson’s chilling sequel. She also talks stunt work (she did almost all of it!), the film’s sibling core with Mason Thames, and portraying trauma and PTSD with honesty.
You’ll hear:
- Why Gwen is “the heart” of Black Phone 2 and how that shapes the sequel.
- How Super 8 was used to differentiate dream vs reality.
- What it’s like acting opposite Ethan Hawke (including terrifying mask and prosthetics).
- The surprising amount of stunts Madeleine performed.
- What makes horror hit harder.
