Hollywood Uncorked Podcast

In the new Hollywood, popular books are worth their weight in gold as the intellectual property powering countless franchises in movies and TV—from Crazy, Rich Asians to The Devil Wears Prada. As co-head of the book department at The Gotham Group, Edward Gamarra is responsible for finding the manuscripts and published works that could become the next blockbuster or breakout series—exactly what he did with The Maze Runner and its sequels, which he executive produced. In this episode, Eddie helps the guys work through three pretty amazing bottles of domestic Merlot as he talks about the difference between Hollywood and publishing, how he ended up in entertainment after getting a PhD in psychoanalysis, and his weekly commute to LA from his home in Minneapolis.
