In this roundtable for The Hollywood Reporter six producers discuss the movies they have been involved with, and how they help bring the director’s vision to life.
Christine Vachon (Past Lives), Ed Guiney (Poor Things), George C. Wolfe (Rustin), Natalie Portman (May December), Scott Sanders (The Color Purple) and Tom Ackerley (Barbie) share the best industry advice they themselves have received and also what it is about a script that makes them want to bring that project to life.
Their productions all received Oscar nominations, so these are producers working at the very highest end of feature film production.
