Stephen Woolley has never shied away from provocative stories or complex characters. The award-winning producer behind The Crying Game and Interview with the Vampire has built a career on bringing bold, emotionally charged narratives to the screen. In 2005, Woolley tcame Center Stage with Mark Gordon to discuss his latest project at the time—Stoned, a film that dives into the turbulent life and mysterious death of Rolling Stones co-founder Brian Jones. In this candid conversation, Woolley opens up about the allure of Jones’s tragic arc, the challenges of recreating the 1960s rock scene, and why the film was more than just another rock biopic—it was a story about fame, identity, and the cost of living too fast.
