Ghosn Hires Legendary Agent Michael Ovitz for TV, Film Deals
Jan. 8: Ghosn Comes Out Fighting: Highlights of Beirut Press Conference
Hollywood producers eager to dramatize the life of Carlos Ghosn, the former Nissan Motor Co. chairman who staged a cinematic escape from Japan in December, are likely to get a simple response: call my agent.
Not just any agent. Ghosn is working with Michael Ovitz, the founder of Creative Artists Agency and former president of Walt Disney Co., to explore film and TV projects. A spokeswoman for Ghosn said Ovitz would assist with projects and evaluating proposals he has received, cautioning that any discussions are still preliminary.
