The prolific producer-director talks new project and bustling production slate, including Taika Waititi & Ellen Burstyn starrer 'Place to Be'.
EXCLUSIVE: Alexander Rodnyansky is a self-confessed “man of many lives” but now, three years after being forced to flee his home in Moscow for being a vocal critic against the war in Ukraine, the Kyiv-born producer is returning to his documentary roots. Since 2022, the producer, who lives between Los Angeles and Italy has been steadily building a roster of European and international projects with ties to Hollywood through his AR Content banner. At present, he’s got five different movies at various stages of production: Kornél Mundruczó’s Place to Be with Ellen Burstyn and Taika Waititi, which just wrapped in Australia; Mundruczó’s At the Sea with Amy Adams, which is in post-production; Laszlo Nemes’ father-son drama Orphan, which he produces with Good Chaos, also in post-production; Barry Keoghan and Riley Keough starrer Butterfly Jam, the English-language debut from Kantemir Balagov; and Jessica Chastain starrer Dreams from director Michel Franco, which launched in Berlin earlier this year and was bought by Greenwich Entertainment for North America.
