I sold a series to Universal. :) In mid-2022 I had an idea to create a doc-series about the creation of EPIC UNIVERSE, through the lens of the entire history of Universal. I created a pretty awesome deck & teaser with my longtime friend & collaborator @brytothefuture, and over 9 months annoyed my way to a meeting with an amazing SVP at Universal Theme Parks. She loved the concept, and with her as the champion of the project — 9 months later I was officially brought on board as an EP, and developed it together with Universal & Peacock. I can’t believe this happened, and it was So Damn Hard to make it happen. :) I’m so excited for you to see it — it’s 3-part series, and it comes out on JULY 24 on Peacock. You are welcome to binge it, and I think you all will love it. :) EPIC RIDE: the story of Universal Theme Parks

We need more myths. TikTok and YouTube and Insta, all have their place. But we need myths that point to who we are, who we can be, etc etc. We really do need more movies. (Just watched SCHOOL OF ROCK with the kids and man we just need good ole movies.)

...and the audience just left the building. Gotta get your stars to stop talking like this.

#Supergirl star Milly Alcock knows she'll face backlash by "simply existing as a woman in [franchise IP]." "We have become very comfortable having this weird ownership of women’s bodies. I can’t really stop them. I can only be myself." variety.com/2026/film/news…

A showrunner buddy once told me I had “a face you fully believe has never seen a cell phone” and that’s the only pitch I want my reps to use from now on.

Nothing like listening to The National's "Boxer" and feeling like it's 2007 again.

I rewatched Pinocchio (1940) and saw so much in it about constructed identities, bodies, boyhood, and faith, and I'm going to write about it, but I believe it is one of the greatest films ever made (not just illustrated children’s theater). It's a masterpiece of cinema.

Went on a date night and had a great time watching Project Hail Mary in a theater. We hadn’t been in a theater in over a year and we finished this brilliant movie and said, “imagine if movie theaters were full of this kind of movie!” We would go every week. Everyone would. PHM is a movie that loves the audience and cares about human drama without resorting to fart jokes, violence and short cuts. Great surprises and just solid fun. Can’t believe Hollywood can still make this then refuse to make this at the same time. Saw it in IMAX and feel like I ripped off the universe instead of the usual feeling like I got duped into seeing trash.

Something I appreciate about Project Hail Mary is finally having a movie I can take my kids to that doesn’t involve CG talking animals or minions
