Nithya Raman’s Big Ask to Paramount’s CEO: Bring Those Productions Back to LA!
- Nithya Raman is talking to Paramount’s boss.
- She wants movie and TV shows made in LA.
- Jobs are on the line!
Okay, so you know how Nithya Raman is running for LA City Hall’s top spot? Well, she’s not just waiting around. She’s out there, shaking hands and making her case. And guess who she’s been chatting with? None other than David Ellison, the big cheese at Paramount!
It sounds like a real power move, right? Nithya’s message to David and his co-CEO is crystal clear. She doesn’t just want the money they’re spending on making shows to stay in America. She wants it to come back home. To Los Angeles.
Think about it. All those crews, actors, the whole creative vibe – it’s what makes LA *LA*. Nithya’s pushing to make sure those opportunities aren’t going somewhere else. She’s painting a picture, a colorful, dynamic one, of LA as the place to be for production.
We love seeing leaders actively working to keep the magic happening right here. It’s not just about the money, though that’s important for all the jobs. It’s about keeping that creative spark alive in our city. It feels like a real push to bring back that electric energy we all associate with Hollywood.
Our Take
This is exactly the kind of proactive leadership we need. Nithya’s reaching out directly, making a strong case for L.A. It’s a smart move, especially with the ParaBros deal finalized. We’re hoping this leads to a flood of new projects and, more importantly, good jobs for Angelenos.
