TITLE
Production company Curate Films will look after Spike Lee, Ben Stiller, Chris Columbus and a host of other Hollywood greats in London and Europe through their creative partnership with US production house Pony Show Entertainment.
Curate already has incredible directorial talent and houses over 20 writers that have been used by agencies and brands alike, and the impact of having writers and now Hollywood A list directors joining forces makes them an attractive proposition for agencies and a new and exciting way forward. “Pony Show’s diverse and talented roster is exceptional, Mads and I are incredibly excited to partner with them.”
Pony Show EP’s Jeff Frankel and Susan Kirson share the same creative ideology. “We started chatting with Dan and Madeleine a while back and felt their company’s vision was perfectly in line with ours. World class storytellers like ours can be an invaluable asset to get people buzzing about a client’s message”. Some ad folks might not be aware that Spike Lee is a recent inductee to the Advertising Hall of Fame. “These directors get it. Give the likes of Ben Stiller or Chris Columbus a great script and watch the magic happen“. Pony Show have strong links to Hollywood best and brightest; actress Melissa McCarthy directed her first TV spot with them, Peter Berg, Barry Sonnenfeld, Bryan Singer are just a few of the Hollywood heavyweights who have had long affiliations with the company.
Curate will also look after Lee Daniels, Drew Pearce, Alec Berg, Lee Toland Krieger, Malcolm D Lee, and Pamela Adlon among other Hollywood’s best and brightest talent from the Pony Show roster. Pamela Adlon’s Better Things which she wrote and directed is currently running on BBC2 is a very funny dark and observed show about single motherhood.
