Judd Apatow Says New Hollywood Model Is “If It Bleeds, It Leads,” Little Room Left For “Subtler, Human” Stories
Judd Apatow lamented the state of the entertainment industry, saying a new Hollywood model leaves little room for grounded storylines.
Appearing on a new episode of Dana Carvey and David Spade ‘s Superfly podcast, the three-time Emmy winner was asked about his thoughts on current streamer and studio approaches to the filmmaking business. Known for producing such projects as Knocked Up, The King of Staten Island, Freaks and Geeks, The 40-Year-Old Virgin, The Big Sick and more, Apatow is set to direct a Mel Brooks documentary at HBO. In September, Deadline exclusively reported that Apatow and Steven Spielberg boarded Sony’s Cola Wars as director and producer, respectively, about Pepsi’s ’80s attempt to challenge Coca-Cola in the marketplace.
