“They don’t thank you for being a good little boy or girl. They thank you for results,” says today’s guest Mike Paseornek. If you don’t know Mike by name, you definitely know him for his work. From American Psycho (2000) to Hunger Games (2012) to La La Land (2016), there is no genre outside of Mike’s repertoire. Now, after 25 prolific years as Lionsgate’s President, Mike leaves his executive title behind for a three-year producing deal with Lionsgate. In this episode, Mike talks about the “start up” days of Lionsgate, the new chapter in his career, and the importance of having your own opinion.
