Russian actor Mark Eydelshteyn has signed with William Morris Endeavor (WME) for representation. He continues to be managed by ColorCreative, with public relations handled by Sunshine Sachs.

Early Life and Education

Born on February 18, 2002, in Nizhny Novgorod, Russia, Eydelshteyn grew up in a family immersed in the arts. His mother, Olesya Valeryevna Eydelshteyn, is a dialect coach, and his father is a sports journalist. This environment fostered his early interest in performance arts. He attended the Moscow Art Theatre School, graduating in 2023.

Career Highlights

Eydelshteyn gained prominence with his leading role in the 2022 drama The Land of Sasha, which premiered at the 72nd Berlin International Film Festival. The film, where he played the titular role of Sasha, explored themes of self-discovery and adolescence. In 2023, he starred as Moshe Tal in Pravednik, a historical drama that delved into the impact of war on personal identity.

In 2024, he achieved international recognition for his portrayal of Ivan Zakharov in Anora, directed by Sean Baker. The film won the Palme d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival and further solidified his presence in global cinema. That same year, he took on the role of Kolya Gerasimov in Guest from the Future, a modern adaptation of the Soviet-era sci-fi classic. His growing profile led to his casting in December 2024 as Mr. Smith in the second season of Amazon Prime Video’s Mr. & Mrs. Smith.

Remi Wolf Signs With Red Light Management

Remi Wolf—the funk-pop maximalist with a paint-splattered soundboard and the vocal swagger of a millennial Janis Joplin on a Red Bull bender—has officially signed with Red Light Management for management. The move comes just about a year after she dropped her album Big Ideas (July 2023, Island Records), a record that asked the question, “What if Prince, Beck, and the Teletubbies all collaborated in a hotbox?” and somehow made it work.

Wolf continues to be repped by TBA Agency for live bookings worldwide outside of Europe and the UK, with CAA handling her European/UK touring, because global funk distribution requires careful territorial delineation. On the publicity front, it’s Biz3 in the US and Imran Malik Publicity in the UK, an international split that suggests her email chains now have more CCs than a Google Doc in startup purgatory.

With over 4 million monthly listeners on Spotify, Remi’s streaming footprint is as loud as her stage fits. Her top markets—Chicago, New York City, Los Angeles, Brooklyn, and Sydney—are essentially the core of any indie-sleaze

Joss Stone Signs With Pure Represents for Europe/UK Representation

Soul-pop powerhouse Joss Stone has officially signed with Pure Represents for representation in Europe and the UK, rounding out an international rep lineup that’s as globally mobile as her discography. She continues to be repped by UTA for the rest of the world, while her PR remains split between Full Scope PR (U.S.) and DWL Music PR (UK)—a fittingly diplomatic arrangement for a singer who once played live in over 200 countries during her Total World Tour.

Stone currently draws over 1.2 million monthly listeners on Spotify, with her top markets including São Paulo, Santiago, Rio de Janeiro, Amsterdam, and Buenos Aires—proof that her soul-infused vocals and barefoot-bohemian vibe still resonate deeply across both hemispheres. Her most recent release, “Loving You” with Shaggy, dropped in September 2023 as an independent single, blending reggae-tinged warmth with her trademark retro soul delivery.

And while Joss may not dominate headlines like some of her pop contemporaries, her festival résumé reads like a highlight reel:

Amy Brenneman Has Signed With Anonymous Content for Management

Amy Brenneman has signed with Anonymous Content for management, a move that pairs one of TV’s most enduring dramatic forces with a firm best known for shaping the prestige-TV-to-film-to-global-streaming crossover pipeline. You know—the good stuff.

Brenneman is probably on your mental IMDb for roles that were either heartbreaking, critically acclaimed, or some hybrid of both. She broke out on NYPD Blue in the ‘90s, created and starred in Judging Amy (based on her own mother, no less), and spent six spiritually chaotic seasons on Private Practice. More recently, she delivered a grief-laced gut punch as Laurie Garvey in The Leftovers, HBO’s existential apocalypse series that started weird and ended sublime.

She currently stars in Amazon’s The Horror of Dolores Roach and is set to appear in the upcoming indie drama Tinkers, alongside an ensemble of festival favorites.

Brenneman continues to be repped by CAA and Apex Public Relations, but Anonymous gives her a new vector: the kind of management firm that gets your drama into a film festival and your memoir optioned by A24 in the same month.

Pedro Sampaio Has Signed With WME for Representation

Pedro Sampaio has signed with WME for representation. The move brings one of Brazil’s most-streamed artists under one of Hollywood’s biggest talent umbrellas—because if you’re going to make global moves, you might as well do it in Dolby Surround.

Sampaio, who currently boasts over 8.7 million monthly listeners on Spotify, has a fanbase anchored firmly in Brazil’s cultural hubs—São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Campinas, and Curitiba—but increasingly, his music is finding legs abroad. His latest release, “Perversa” with J Balvin, dropped via Warner Music Brasil and feels like a heat map of every club banger from Ipanema to Ibiza: bilingual, beat-forward, and engineered for maximum dopamine.

He continues to be managed by VNew Brasil and repped for PR by BPMCOM, keeping his core team local even as his international ambitions grow. And make no mistake, the festival circuit is already taking note. In recent years, Sampaio has lit up stages at Rock in Rio, Planeta Atlântida, Lollapalooza Brasil, and Festival

But 4,000 years later, people still fly across the world to see ‘em,” Jackson quips.

The full spot, “Clocks,” ups the tempo and the roster. Music legends Missy Elliott, GloRilla, Teezo Touchdown, and BLACKPINK’s Jennie appear alongside NBA star Anthony Edwards, skateboarding icon Mark Gonzales, and model-actress Gabbriette.

Mike Epps Signs with Artists First for Management

The Upshaws are in their final season, but Mike Epps isn’t going anywhere.

The veteran comic and actor has signed with Artists First for management, joining a roster that leans into multi-hyphenates and comedy heavyweights. He continues to be repped by UTA across film and TV, IAG for comedy touring, and Kovert Creative for publicity.

And while a lot of comedians are going podcast-microphone-in-the-basement, Epps is still a stage guy. He recently headlined the Fireworks in Paradise Comedy Festival in the Bahamas, adding a little sun to his signature brand of grit-and-glam. Before that? He suited up as a guest sideline reporter for the Big 3, casually trading punchlines for play-by-play.

Epps currently stars in and executive produces Netflix’s The Upshaws, which just announced its fifth and final season. He also recently appeared in The Underdoggs alongside Snoop Dogg and can be seen in the docu-special Buying Back the Block on HGTV, a more personal lens into his off-stage mission.

Muse Signs With Wasserman

Muse, the genre-blending British rock institution that has spent the past two decades toggling between dystopian anxiety and symphonic bombast, has signed with Wasserman for representation in both North and South America. The band continues to be managed globally by Three Six Zero.

This new agency alignment comes on the heels of their latest single, Unravelling, released last month via Warner Music—a track that leans into their trademark tension-and-release formula with a polished edge that suggests they’re still quite comfortable taking a wrecking ball to existential dread.

Gary Payton II Signs With WME for Representation

Gary Payton II, the defensive dynamo known for his relentless energy and impact off the bench, has signed with WME for representation, marking a new chapter in his off-court career. He was previously repped by Goodwin Sports Management.

Affectionately dubbed “The Mitten” — a nod to his Hall of Fame father, Gary Payton — Payton II has carved out his own niche in the NBA through elite perimeter defense, hustle plays, and a championship-winning stint with the Golden State Warriors in 2022. His journey has been anything but linear: after going undrafted in 2016, he bounced between G League stints and short-term NBA contracts before earning his role in Golden State’s rotation with tenacity and high-IQ play.

Beyond the hardwood, Payton has also made headlines for his advocacy work in support of children with learning disabilities, sharing his own experiences with dyslexia and ADHD to help reduce stigma and increase awareness.

Now with WME in his corner, Payton II seems poised to expand his presence beyond basketball — whether that’s in media, activism, or entrepreneurial ventures — all with the same defensive edge he

Damson Idris Signs with ID-PR, Expanding His Power Team Behind the Scenes

Damson Idris has signed with ID-PR for public relations, further rounding out a behind-the-scenes team that’s as calculated and polished as his rise to stardom. He continues to be repped by CAA for talent, managed by M88, and represented in the UK by Laraview—a boutique firm helmed by Aira Idris, who, yes, is likely family. Hollywood may be built on relationships, but this one’s literally in the bloodline.

The London-born actor has emerged as one of his generation’s most versatile and magnetic performers, thanks in large part to his breakout role as Franklin Saint on Snowfall—the critically acclaimed FX drama co-created by John Singleton. For fans of the show (and there are many, who knows I might even have it playing in the background while I’m writing this), Idris’ transformation from a bright, entrepreneurial teen into a haunted kingpin was a masterclass in narrative slow burn and emotional precision. It also turned him into a must-watch name for casting directors and streaming platforms alike.

Since Snowfall wrapped its final season in 2023, Idris hasn’t slowed down. He starred opposite Anthony Mackie in Netflix’s sci-fi action film Outside the Wire, executive

Brian Lachman and Karina Thomas Join Corson Agency

Corson Agency just added 2 people to its agency. Brian Lachman has signed on as an agent, bringing with him a sonic arsenal of bass-driven and electronic talent including Dirty Audio, ALRT, Chamberlain, CODES, and Dack Janiels.

Lachman’s move is less about changing desks and more about signaling a deliberate push by Corson into the aggressive corners of the electronic and heavy music world. Previously Head of EDM and Metal at Prysm Talent Agency, Lachman wasn’t just booking club slots—he founded their Metal division, making him a bit of a genre diplomat in an agency world that often doesn’t know what to do with death growls and dubstep in the same spreadsheet.

It’s also a bit of a two-for-one deal. Karina Thomas, who joined Prysm as a junior agent and Lachman’s assistant in September of last year, is making the leap to Corson as well. Think of it less as a mentorship arc and more as a carefully orchestrated backstage pass from one agency ecosystem to another. Thomas had been quietly ascending while working closely with Lachman—proof that even in the pyrotechnic world of bass music, the assistant pipeline is still where careers get built.

Lachman also brings credibility from his time in

The band continues to be repped by UTA for touring and managed by High Maintenance Management, forming a team that seems equal parts nostalgic and strategic, kind of like wearing a vintage band tee with a $1,000 leather jacket.

Edge of Paradise Signs With TKO Agency for Worldwide Representation (Excluding South America)

Edge of Paradise, the symphonic-metal-meets-cyberpunk-hard-rock band that sounds like the soundtrack to a dystopian space opera where androids have trust issues, has a new booking agency. The Kirby Organization (TKO) will now handle the band’s representation worldwide—everywhere except South America, where IDL Entertainment continues to hold court. FM Music Management remains firmly at the helm, guiding the group’s overall strategy like a gothic Gandalf.

Spotify puts their monthly listener count north of 41,000, with Helsinki, Los Angeles, Stockholm, Jakarta, and Ashburn, Virginia forming a surprisingly geographically scattered fan map. (What do Finnish metalheads and suburban Virginians have in common? Apparently, a taste for power vocals and post-apocalyptic guitar riffs.)

Touring-wise, the band has previously jumped on lineups with genre heavyweights like HammerFall and Sonata Arctica, which in metal circles is the equivalent of getting knighted at the castle gates.

Golden Brooks Signs With Industry Entertainment

Golden Brooks, the actress beloved for her breakout role as Maya Wilkes on the seminal UPN/CW series Girlfriends, has signed with Industry Entertainment for management. She’ll be repped by Dana Sims, joining a roster known for guiding talent across both prestige TV and commercial hits.

Brooks, a trained dancer and Yale School of Drama alum, has long been celebrated for her sharp comedic timing and emotional depth—traits that made Girlfriends a cultural touchstone and her character a fan favorite during its eight-season run. In recent years, she’s continued to stack credits that showcase her range, from the Starz crime drama Power Book II: Ghost to the Disney Channel series Saturdays.

Beyond acting, Brooks has directed short films and participated in women-focused creative panels and mentorship initiatives. Her move to Industry signals a continued push into new territory—on and off screen—at a time when the original Girlfriends generation is seeing renewed interest from both audiences and Hollywood execs looking to mine nostalgia with purpose.

Tyler Rich Signs with Dynamic Talent International for Representation

Country artist Tyler Rich has signed with Dynamic Talent International for live representation worldwide excluding Canada, with Trevor Swenson serving as the point agent. He continues to be repped by Feldman Agency (who he signed with last week) for representation in Canada, and managed by Laffitte Management Group. He makes the move after previously being repped by CAA.

Rich first broke out with his 2018 debut single “The Difference,” which hit No. 1 on SiriusXM’s The Highway and eventually earned RIAA Gold certification. Since then, the Northern California native has carved out a fan-favorite lane in contemporary country, blending heartfelt lyrics with pop-friendly hooks across projects like Two Thousand Miles and I Know You Do. His 2022 single “Trucks Don’t Lie” and the more recent “Rather Be Us” have helped him maintain momentum as a consistent streaming presence, with over 482,000 monthly listeners on Spotify. His top cities include Brisbane, Sydney, Chicago, Denver, and Toronto—a reminder of his international resonance.

Duke Dumont Gets A New PR Team

Duke Dumont, the genre-shaping producer and DJ behind some of the most enduring dance anthems of the last decade, has tapped UK-based DawBell for PR representation. He continues to be managed by Redlight Management and represented by Wasserman for live bookings.

Best known for his breakout 2013 single “Need U (100%)” featuring AME—which hit No. 1 on the UK Singles Chart and earned a Grammy nomination—Dumont has remained a staple of global dance music with hits like “Ocean Drive,” “I Got U,” and “The Power.” His 2020 debut album Duality showcased his evolution from festival king to introspective producer, blending house, ambient, and soul-inflected electronica.

Today, he dropped his latest single, “I Need You Now,” via EMI—another melodic slow-burner with his signature emotional punch.

Dumont has played some of the biggest stages in the world, including Coachella, Tomorrowland, Creamfields, Ultra Music Festival, and Electric Daisy Carnival. With over 8.8 million monthly listeners on Spotify, his top markets—London, Sydney, Dublin, Melbourne, and Manchester—show

W&W Join Anna Agency For Representation

W&W have signed with Anna Agency for representation, reinforcing their standing as one of dance music’s most enduring festival juggernauts. The Dutch duo—Willem van Hanegem and Wardt van der Harst—continue to be managed by Rave Culture, the label and lifestyle brand they co-founded, which has evolved into a global platform for big-room, trance, and mainstage anthems.

Since exploding onto the scene in the early 2010s, W&W have cultivated a signature blend of euphoric builds and floor-rattling drops that helped define the modern festival era. Their breakout tracks like “Bigfoot,” “Thunder,” and “The Code” became instant EDM staples, propelling them onto the main stages of virtually every major electronic festival: think Tomorrowland, Ultra, EDC Las Vegas, and Creamfields. Their live sets—equal parts pyrotechnics, nostalgia, and unrelenting BPM—continue to draw massive crowds from Hamburg to Kuala Lumpur.

Most recently, the duo released “Bad,” a high-energy collaboration with KSHMR that dropped in April via Spinnin’ Records, tapping into the peak-hour energy they’ve long mastered. And with over 14
