Blind Item #6
This company has the backing of deep pocketed Hollywood heavy hitters & a keen eye for edgy projects attached to awards contenders in multiple categories. Known for raucous Sundance after-parties. One founder worked closely with the A++ producer turned box office poison & cut ties a few years back. Another has a secret to keep from their international investors, especially the A-list action star with a carefully cultivated public image. Their acquisition strategy evolves with every new revelation. Their company had a big debut last year and everyone expects to capitalize on recent awards show buzz for acquisitions. One partner has seen Hollywood excess warts and all. He’s kept his nose clean, at least to this point. They timed their announcement to coincide with another high profile executive exit. The Producer couldn’t stop them, but power hungry exec eventually returned for a sweeter deal. Another partner has been hiding a big liability from the rest of the team. Not the brightest bulb in the box. Sparks will fly.
