Gunpowder & Sky – Who Recently Teamed up with MTVE on “Hot Mess Holiday” to Develop Comedic Movies for MTV Entertainment

On the heels of their successful collaboration on Hot Mess Holiday starring Kal Penn, MTV Entertainment Group today announced a multi-picture deal with independent studio Gunpowder & Sky led by Van Toffler, former CEO of Viacom Media Networks Music & Logo Group, will develop comedic movies for MTV Entertainment’s portfolio of brands and platforms.

“Van and David are incredible creatives and proven hitmakers with great taste – we’re excited to partner with them and develop a new slate of comedic movies which I have no doubt will be hilarious and incredibly entertaining,” said Chris McCarthy, President & CEO, ViacomCBS Media Networks.

“They say the perp should never return to the scene of the crime, but here I go returning to my old home that was insane enough to allow me to make diverse and outrageous comedies like The Kings of Comedy, Napoleon Dynamite, Jackass, Blades of Glory, The Longest Yard, Beavis and Butt-Head Do America, Election & The Wood to name a few,” said Van Toffler, CEO, Gunpowder & Sky. “So, if Chris McCarthy and the rest of the gang at ViacomCBS are silly enough to give me the keys to the car once again, how could our studio not jump on that opportunity. Strap in!”
