- Nicholas Todisco and Brad Pence are exiting Atlas Artists, the L.A.-based management company, in what sources describe as an amicable parting of ways.
- The pair's notable actor clients include Hannah Waddingham, the Emmy-winning Ted Lasso star, and Connor Storrie, who stars in the breakout Crave/HBO Max series Heated Rivalry.
- Pence joined Atlas Artists in 2018 and was promoted to partner earlier this year; before that, he spent six years at Primary Wave Entertainment, with prior stints at Industry Entertainment and ROAR.
- Todisco has been with Atlas since its 2014 inception and was elevated to partner in 2022, joining the firm from Mosaic after beginning his career at Brillstein Entertainment Partners.
- It's still undetermined where the two managers will land next or which clients will follow them to a new home.
- Atlas Artists is the L.A.-based management division of Charles Roven's Atlas Entertainment; both sides issued cordial joint statements, with President Dave Fleming and VP Tory Howard calling Todisco and Pence "valued members."
Why it matters: The departure strips Atlas Artists of two partners who repped a roster including Emmy winner Hannah Waddingham and rising star Connor Storrie, creating immediate uncertainty over which clients will follow. For Todisco and Pence — tenured managers with a combined decade-plus at Atlas — the move opens an undetermined next chapter; for Atlas, it loses institutional knowledge built since the firm's 2014 inception, even as the parting is framed as friendly.
