Take 57 - Showrunner Vaun Wilmott, Dominion, Jack Ryan

Take 57 - Showrunner Vaun Wilmott, Dominion, Jack Ryan

We talk to showrunner Vaun Wilmott who tells stories of giving up acting, selling shampoo and breaking into the world of writing.
He tells us about his 'overnight success', taking more than ten years of writing until he created Dominion and the joys of being the number two in a room.
We talk about leadership over Zoom, missing out on the snacks and lunches of the old days and working on a 'dream job' like Star Trek.
Vaun talks about his shows, the importance - in a world of rejection - of remembering your value and your successes and we get in to imposter syndrome, in all its forms.
A candid and insightful interview.
