Adrien Brody has starred in a number of vastly different films, including “The Darjeeling Limited,” “King Kong,” “The Fantastic Mr. Fox,” and even the explosive action film “Predators.”
Today, his newest movie hits theaters. It’s called “Detachment,” and in it Brody stars as Henry Barthes, a substitute teacher with a secret past who never stays anywhere long enough to form a bond with his students or colleagues.
“Detachment” features an all-star cast, including Lucy Liu, Marsha Gay Harden, Christina Hendricks, and Bryan Cranston. Tony Kaye, who’s most famous for “American History X” is the director. Adrien Brody joins us in studio.
