NEWMAN, SOLO LEAVE ICM FOR ENDEAVOR
Michael Fleming in Variety is reporting the big talent agent news that ICM motion picture head Robert Newman (pictured) and TV lit department head Matt Solo have left the agency for Endeavor, where both will become partners.
While Variety says that Solo’s exit from ICM was expected, “Newman’s exit was a jaw-dropper, bringing Endeavor a client list that includes Danny Boyle, Guillermo Del Toro, Mike Figgis, Baz Luhrmann, Paul McGuigan and Robert Rodriguez.” The article goes on to note Newman’s strength: identifying hot directing talent early and guiding them to successful careers.
