    De Luca and Abdy, who were previously at MGM, worked with PTA on Licorice Pizza (which is why it was distributed by MGM which was unfortunate for PTA’s Oscar chances back then).

    Before this PTA had a relationship with Megan Ellison from Annapurna (working on The Master, Inherent Vice, and Phantom Thread) but Annapurna is now a ghost in the movie industry. It seems like Miss Heiress had to stop bleeding so much of daddy’s money (that’s insulting but I appreciate all the movies she was able to make).

    It’s kind of weird that Zaslav is allowing this. Outside of There Will Be Blood PTA does not make financially viable films.
