“Spinning Gold” director Timothy Scott Bogart will tell the story behind MTV through his new production company.
Hot on the heels of the Cannes market launch of “Spinning Gold,” the story of Casablanca Records founder Neil Bogart, the director has unveiled Hero Partners, a partnership with producing partner Jessica Martins of Hero Entertainment, and “Spinning Gold” producer and financier Chris Torto.
Dedicated to streamlining independent film financing, the new venture will fully finance four to five films per year, providing a one-stop shop to finance and produce a slate of music-driven projects across film, television and theater (Broadway).
Torto has assembled an initial feature film production fund of 100 million, highlighted by a slate of original pop musicals, including “Marian,” a period film set to modern music that tells the true story behind Robin Hood. Production begins in Italy in November with Bogart at the helm and Martins and Torto producing.
