We are so proud to have Adam as the chair of our creative advisory board. Adam is an expert in the creative process and has studied for years how to foster the creation of ‘Originals’, said Isaac Lee, founder and executive chairman of Exile. Additionally, we are thrilled that Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi, Dr. Serena McCalla, Gael Garca Bernal and Diego Luna will bring their unique and varied perspectives to the table. We look forward to working closely alongside these four creatives as we look to the future of multicultural content creation.
Exile is a studio full of trailblazers, adds Grant. I cant wait for them to change the face of entertainment and media in both English and Spanish.
Lee, the former chief content officer of Univision and Televisa, partnered with Julia Saenz, Daniel Eilemberg, Tere Prez and Alejandro Uribe to launch Exile in 2018. The company focuses on developing, packaging and producing long-form content in Spanish and English for global audiences. Recently, Exile forged a partnership with Endeavor Content to finance, develop and produce Spanish-language scripted television projects as well as to create a fund to acquire IP and pursue development deals with high-profile and emerging talent across Latin America and Spain.
