Power Business Managers 2024: The Hollywood Reporter Accepting Nominations for Annual List

When it comes to building a team in Hollywood, there’s no one you should trust more than your business manager. These discreet, often press-shy money managers can help you decide whether to invest in that restaurant or take a bet on Bitcoin (hint: the answer’s probably no), advise you on whether you can afford that home you’re looking to buy and help you navigate the industry’s leaner times. 

The Hollywood Reporter‘s annual list of Power Business Managers spotlights the top names in the field through a mix of deep research and reporting. Last year’s list, which you can read here, included the financial advisors who helped A-list actors like Tom Cruise and Anne Hathaway navigate the SAG-AFTRA strike; managed the money for powerful writers like Issa Rae and Mindy Kaling, who couldn’t work during the WGA strike; and advised directors like Greta Gerwig, who benefited from the box office success of the Barbie movie. They also worked with the industry’s top producers, athletes, musicians and influencers.

Do you know someone who should be on the list? THR is now accepting nominations for the 2024 Power Business Managers List, which is scheduled to publish in the Oct. 9 issue.
