Writer-Director Tiger Ji Signs With UTA (EXCLUSIVE)


UTA has signed Hong Kong writer-director Tiger Ji for representation in all areas.

Ji first gained recognition at age 19 with his award-winning 2020 short, “Wuhan Driver,” executive produced by Jonathan Sanger (“Vanilla Sky,” “Elephant Man”). It follows a ramen chef as he goes on an unintended late night odyssey with the Grim Reaper, sharing a bowl of noodles and discovering what it means to be human. Ji is based in Los Angeles, where he is currently developing his first feature, an adaptation of “Death & Ramen” with Fit Via Vi Film Productions (“Oh Canada,” “Reality”).
