- Josh Stewart signed with Gersh for representation in all areas following his work on Ang Lee's new film Gold Mountain
- Gold Mountain, which recently wrapped production, adapts C Pam Zhang's novel How Much of These Hills is Gold with a script by Pulitzer Prize finalist Chang-Rae Lee; Stewart's co-stars include Chedi Chang, Sophia Xu, Yao, Zine Tseng and Owen Teague
- Stewart plays Antiphates, king of the giant Laestrygonians in Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, currently in theaters
- He simultaneously appears in Paramount+'s Dutton Ranch as Sheriff Handy Wade, opposite Kelly Reilly and Annette Bening
- Stewart has previously worked with Nolan on Tenet, Interstellar and The Dark Knight Rises, plus leads in The Collector series and credits in Insidious: The Last Key and The Finest Hours
- He continues to be repped by Authentic Talent and Literary Management and Yorn, Levine, Barnes alongside the Gersh deal
Why it matters: Gersh adds a fourth Nolan collaborator—after Tenet, Interstellar, and Interstellar—with an actor currently visible in two of summer's most-discussed projects, giving the signing built-in showcase timing without needing a new audition cycle.
