10 Jul
Summary
- Artists Equity is expanding into scripted television with a new division.
- Griffin Zucosky, formerly of Universal TV, will lead the new division.
- The TV division will operate independently of the Netflix film deal.
Artists Equity is significantly expanding its operations by launching a dedicated scripted television division. This new venture aims to broaden the studio's content offerings beyond its established film production success. Griffin Zucosky, a former executive from Universal TV, has been appointed to lead this expansion as senior vice president.
Zucosky will report to Amy Baer, president of film and TV, and will be responsible for supervising the development and production of both limited and ongoing television series. Baer expressed confidence in Zucosky's capabilities, citing his experience and entrepreneurial spirit as key assets for this new chapter.
This television division will function independently from Artists Equity's existing first-look film deal with Netflix. Since its inception four years ago, the studio has primarily focused on producing scripted films like "The Rip" and "Air," as well as several nonfiction projects.
