Kentucky Call Sheet

Jeremy Gold is the president of production at Blumhouse Television where he has overseen such TV shows as THE GOOD LORD BIRD with Ethan Hawke, THE THING ABOUT PAM with Academy Award winner Renee Zellweger, and THE LOUDEST VOICE with Academy Award winner Russel Crowe. Although Jeremy is not a native of Louisville or Kentucky for that matter, his successful and varied career took a very significant detour through the bluegrass where he was an actor at the Acting Apprentice Company in Louisville. 

Listen in as Jeremy sits down with Stu and talks about his path in the industry. From his start as an actor to working in the casting department to ultimately ending up as an executive for some of the biggest production companies in the film and television industry.
