Phillips brings several writers with her to Verve, including Greg Erb and Jason Oremland (“Imaginary”), Guy Busick (“Abducting Abigail”), Tory Kamen (“Eleanor the Great”) Charles Leavitt (“Those Who Wish Me Dead”), Anthony Jaswinski (“The Shallows”) and Shiwani Srivastava (“Wedding Season”). Directors Andy Tennant (“The Kominsky Method”), Tom Dey (“Wedding Season”), Sasie Sealy (“Lucky Grandma”), Todd Robinson (“The Last Full Measure”) and Patrick Lussier (“Drive Angry”) will also follow Phillips to Verve.
