Jake's Take with Jacob Elyachar16 Juni 2025

James Sunshine TALKS ‘Hell’s Kitchen’, ‘Big Brother 18’ & ‘Killing Mary Sue’ | JTWJE Podcast #372

It is a privilege to welcome Reality TV veteran and writer, producer, and director James Sunshine to The Jake’s Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast.

After graduating as valedictorian from his film school, James moved to Los Angeles in 2012 with no job, no car, nowhere to live, and an overdrawn bank account. Over a decade later, he has become a creative powerhouse in film and TV, breaking into the industry as a producer on some of the biggest Reality TV Shows of all time, including Big Brother 18, Hell’s Kitchen, Project Runway, Supermarket Superstar, and Total Divas.

In 2020, he wrote, directed, and edited his debut indie film Coronavirus Conspiracy during the height of the 2020 lockdowns. Distributed by Lionsgate, the satire became the first union-approved independent film shot in Los Angeles after the lockdown.

Recently, James released his latest film, Killing Mary Sue. The film focuses on a corrupt senator (Dermot Mulroney) who arranges for the murder of his most significant liability, his erratic burnout stepdaughter (Sierra McCormick), only for her to unwittingly discover her natural talents as an untouchable killer. The film also stars French Stewart, Jason Mewes, Kym Whitley, and Martin Kove. Killing Mary Sue won the Best Picture Award at the Independent Filmmakers Showcase at the Los Angeles Film Fest.

On this episode of The Jake’s Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast, James Sunshine spoke about his experiences on Big Brother and Hell’s Kitchen, the behind-the-scenes process of Coronavirus Conspiracy, and previewing Killing Mary Sue.
