I loved directing this series for @FoldsofHonor to support scholarships for the children of veterans and first responders. These families were so brave to share their stories, while the fantastic sports journalist @WerderEdNFL moderated.

What a phenomenal article by Hillary Atkin for @DEADLINE about WILD BEAUTY: MUSTANG SPRIT OF THE WEST.

@RichardERoeper @RichardERoeper - if you're in Los Angeles on Tuesday, there will be wild horses in front of WME in Beverly Hills for our last WILD BEAUTY screening - 1pm-2pm. You're invited!

On a quick but very cool work trip. Can’t tell you where.

When I wrote my first poem over a decade ago, I never expected anyone to care, let alone to ripple into this level of worldwide connection. When Ashley  approached me to create a film based on my book, it felt completely surreal; and those old thoughts came back to me of why would anyone want to hear that story? And then I remembered what I found out the first day I posted my poetry. People care because it’s true and the best love stories are true. My goal has always been to spread more poetry into the world, and Ashley is bringing that dream alive through film. I cant wait to see this Paris love story unfold. It’s in perfect hands. variety.com/2023/film/news…

I am deeply excited to announce that we are developing a feature film based on the work by @atticuspoetry - the New York Times Bestseller, also known as the most 'mysterious poet' in the world. I have loved THE DARK BETWEEN stars for years, and over the moon to bring this film to life through his verses. Thank you for breaking the news, @variety! #atticus #atticuspoetry #thedarkbetweenstars #loveherwild #atticusmovie variety.com/2023/film/news…
