Under the pact, Poul has joined Endeavor Content’s upcoming HBO Max drama seriesThe deal stems from Poul’s current collaboration with Endeavor Content; he is executive producing and directed two episodes of Oscar winner Damien Chazelle’s upcoming Netflix series“Alan is not only one of the greatest producers around, but he is also a highly talented filmmaker and his illustrious production expertise makes him an invaluable partner to work with on,” said Endeavor Content SVP Television Joe Hipps.
The project, which will film in Japan, is close to Poul’s heart because it is bringing him back to the beginning of his entertainment career.

When the project became a series and was set up at HBO Max, the duo invited Poul to come onboard, bringing his career full circle, Poul said.
