Deal Brings Grandview’s Excellence in Literary Management To Broad Entertainment Platform of TPG-Backed Initial Group
Eisner, LLP announced today that it represented leading Hollywood literary management firm Grandview on its acquisition by Untitled Entertainment, the widely recognized talent management company representing premier talent in film, television, music, and more. The combined company will operate under the name of Untitled Entertainment (“Untitled”), which earlier this year became the first investment of the newly named Initial Group, a talent-centric entertainment company established by the global alternative asset management firm TPG.
Grandview, likewise, becomes the first acquisition by Untitled under the Initial Group umbrella. The transaction brings Grandview’s 10-year history of representing some of the most exciting storytellers in entertainment together with Untitled, giving the Grandview team a broader platform to build upon their status as the most highly regarded literary management group in the media space. In connection with the deal, Grandview co-founders Jeff Silver and Matt Rosen have been named managing partners at Untitled.
The Eisner team that represented Grandview in this transaction included Founding Partner Michael Eisner, Senior Counsel Holden Sumner, and Associate Arianna Goolsby.
