About Will Ferrell

Actor/Writer/Producer Will Ferrell has created some of film’s most iconic characters in films such as ANCHORMAN: THE LEGEND OF RON BURGUNDY, ELF, STEP BROTHER’S, and STRANGER THAN FICTION to name a few. Along with producing partner Jessica Elbaum, Ferrell is a co-founder of Gloria Sanchez Productions. The company has a multi-year first-look deal with Netflix, which came on the heels of the incredible overnight success of “Dead to Me,” which has since been renewed for a third season.

Additionally, it was announced that the production shingle had also set a multi-year first-look deal with 20th Century Studios. The three-year pact will focus on developing feature-length films for consideration on both theatrical and streaming platforms. The production company is also credited with HUSTLERS, BOOKSMART and BARB & STAR GO TO VISTA DEL MAR, all of which garnered critical acclaim and award nominations.
