Writer-Producer Noah Hawley on 'Fargo' and 'Legion'

Hosted by and
How does Noah Hawley get so much writing done? He tells us he's discovered a “rift in the space-time continuum.” The novelist, screenwriter and TV writer-producer talks about his career arc and what he knows so far about the upcoming Legion and season three of Fargo, both on FX.

Noah Hawley calls himself a “20 year overnight success.” The busy writer-producer is also a novelist, whose most recent book, Before the Fall, will also be adapted as a screenplay for Sony, written by Hawley himself.

Hawley joins us to talk about the difference between writing for film and television, reflects on his career in the TV industry and tells us why he has no plans to ever going back to working on a broadcast network.

Now he's got a deal with FX and several projects in the pipeline there. He shares what he can about the upcoming X-Men series, Legion, and season three of Fargo.
