When Oscar winner Jordan Peele’s anticipated film Nope went into production last year in Southern California, it welcomed the first cycle of trainees from Universal Filmed Entertainment Grou…
The new program—which’s Global Talent Development & Inclusion department developed in concert with the Anti-Recidivism Coalition, Hollywood Cinema Production Resources, and assorted IATSE locals—was introduced as part of the media and entertainment conglomerate’s overall commitment to increasing diversity, equity and inclusion within all areas of production.
“In line with our efforts to provide more gateways into the industry, we could not be more excited to bring this traineeship to a new generation of below-the-line talent. Honing your craft on the set of a Jordan Peele movie is an opportunity that none of the trainees took for granted,” said Universal Filmed Entertainment Group Chairman, Donna Langley.
NBCUniversal’s Global Talent Development & Inclusion was launched under Langley’s leadership in 2017, with the studio becoming the first to establish a department reporting directly to the Chairman, and the only one thus far to address D&I issues with one team delving into both content and work culture.
NBCUniversal subsidiary Universal Filmed Entertainment Group produces, acquires, markets and distributes filmed entertainment worldwide in various media formats for theatrical, home entertainment, television and other distribution platforms. The global division includes Universal Pictures, Focus Features, Universal Pictures Home Entertainment and DreamWorks Animation Film and Television.
