Strong Studios Chief David Ozer Accused of Siphoning TV Show Funds


David Ozer, the president of Strong Studios, is accused in a lawsuit of siphoning money from the show's budget to pay his personal expenses.

Duncan alleges that the show ran into financial difficulty as production was set to get underway in June 2022, forcing him to step in and provide gap financing to keep it on track. The suit accuses Mark Roberson, the CEO of Strong Global Entertainment, and other officers of the parent company of having “signed off on the fake supporting documents… evidencing their knowledge and participation in covering up the misappropriation of funds.” “Defendants’ complete lack of oversight and theft of funds from the ‘Safehaven’ production account negatively impacted crucial relationships with service providers for the Series, who were and are unwilling to do any additional work until they are paid,” the suit states.
