Over the course of the broadcast (which you can read more about here; check back soon for downloadable segments) many of those filmmakers provided juicy, newsy tidbits. You can read them after the jump, including Rian Johnson’s thoughts on the new season of Breaking Bad, Jason Reitman’s almost-foray into the X-Men universe and when we can expect to see the trailer for Edgar Wright’s The World End.

We’ll go one by one:

Rian Johnson has directed two episodes of Breaking Bad and will return to do one more over the series’ final eight episodes.

Rian Johnson on last episodes of #BreakingBad: “I kind of know where its going, and I’ll say nothing except its tremendous” #slashfilmaid

Rian Johnson’s next film, writing now, still sci-fi, very different than #Looper, more Cyberpunk #slashfilmaid http://t.co/uQPyKpmTT7

No more news outside of that description, but it’s certainly exciting that Johnson is choosing to stick with sci-fi for his next script. The question will be, is that the next feature he directs?

Reitman also revealed he’s finished his latest film, Labor Day, but we won’t get to see it for a while.

Finally, Edgar Wright revealed that the first trailer for his upcoming film The World’s End will premiere either in late April or early May. The film opens both in the US and UK in August.
