When Adam McKay decided to make a movie based on The Big Short, he was mainly known for his comedies. But he managed to get a bevy of star actors &mdash; among them Ryan Gosling, Brad Pitt, Steve Carell and Margot Robbie &mdash; to sign on and bring the intensity and arcane financial jargon of Wall Street to life. Michael Lewis sits down with McKay a decade after he made the Oscar-winning movie version of The Big Short to learn about the challenges of getting the film made &mdash; and why he&rsquo;s still making movies about societal collapse.
