We just wrapped the production of the TV series “The Big Cigar”, a Warner Brothers Television production for Apple TV. It was a fantastic experience to work with studio executive Lisa Cochran, showrunner Janine Sherman-Barrois, writers/exec. producers Jim Hecht, Joshuah Bearman, producers Dan Kaplow and Adam Ben Frank, and director Tiffany Johnson. The show stars Andre Holland as Huey Newton, founder of the Black Panthers. Alessandro Nivola, Tiffany Boone, Marc Menchaca, and PJ Byrne also star in the show. Jaguar Bite’s Simón Beltrán and Juan Pablo Solano are co-executive producers for the episodes shot in Colombia.
The project is a beneficiary of the Proimagenes Colombia incentive for shooting in Colombia.
