On this week's Empire Podcast, we welcome into the pod booth provocateur extraordinaire Nicolas Winding Refn, and his leading lady Elle Fanning. The director and actress are here to talk about the slightly insane new fashion-horror movie The Neon Demon, which earned both boos and a 10-minute standing ovation at Cannes. It's that sort of film.

Plus: we bid a sad farewell to Dan Jolin, features editor of Empire for over ten years, who leaves for pastures new this week. He answers reader questions, reminisces about his favourite moments, and composes some Batman v Superman slash fiction on the fly. Bye, Dan!
