Someone years ago told me he was, but they could have been mistaken. Now I'm googling and thinking I might have just believed this for years but he definitely has a lot of Hollywood connections if not.
He grew up in LA where both of his parents worked in Hollywood; his father was a composer and his mother worked as an executive for a TV company. In a strange coincidence, his cousin is Mara Wilson, who is best known for playing Matilda in the beloved 90s family film.
According to the aforementioned book, after he graduated from Harvard Law School he began interviewing TV executives about liberalism in the television world. This is where he met Goldberg, who was the former head of programming for ABC and was once president of 20th Century Fox.
Yeah I remember him using his composer dad as justification for why rap isn't music. Pretty funny he sucks so much ass as a writer he couldn't nepo baby his way into the industry.
My wife throws on LotR any time she's got the flu or on really long airplane rides, because she's seen it so many times that she can just kinda slip in and out on consciousness without feeling like she's missed anything. Its the perfect "I've got 12 hours to kill, now what?" movie experience.
2 hours and 19 minutes counts as incredibly long now? Guess he has never seen The Lord of the Rings.
To be fair he comes from a lineage of making cheap shit that couldn't reach a 90min runtime.
Is he related to this producer? I know he's cousins with Mara Wilson.
