He developed the memoir Amarillo Slim with Nicolas Cage[15] and had the original option on the Vanity Fair article "The Suspects Wore Louboutins" by Nancy Jo Sales[16] which was then acquired by Sofia Coppola for her film about the Hollywood Bling Ring.[17] He produced The Golden Suicides which was developed with Gus Van Sant and based on a Vanity Fair article by Sales.[18] He has also developed projects with Gaspar Noe and from source material by Sarah Silverman, Jonathan Ames, Will Self, Denis Johnson and Thom Jones.[19] He was a producer on the documentary Dirty Hands: The Art and Crimes of David Choe[20] and executive produced the feature documentary The Source which premiered in competition at SXSW in 2012.[21] In television he executive produced the Showtime (TV channel) pilots What’s Not To Love[22] which starred Jonathan Ames and Hedonism and a Lionsgate/FX (TV channel) comedy pilot Sweat Shop.[23]
