Giulia Caruso to Steer Emerging-Filmmaker Slate at Netflix-Partnered Ethos
Giulia Caruso has been appointed to run production and development at Ethos, the production company led by Clint Bentley and Greg Kwedar. The two filmmakers made the hire themselves, placing Caruso in charge of the projects the company is building. Ethos is assembling a lineup of pictures from directors at the early stages of their careers, drawing talent from film festivals and industry training programs. The company also holds an existing agreement with Netflix, which gives the slate a path to the streamer's audience. For an industry town where the next generation of filmmakers is always the subject of conversation, the appointment places Caruso at the point where new talent meets a major distributor.
