Producer Andrew A. Kosove came to the cinema by accident. Born in 1970, he studied at Princeton and was going to work in economics, studied politics along the way and could not imagine that one day he would be nominated for an Oscar. It all began for him and his friend and colleague Broderick Johnson with an interest in the story of a real man, gangster and basketball player Richard Kirkland, who learned about it, friends decided that it would make a good movie. For several years, this idea was in the air, it was discussed in every possible way with the producers, but the film was never made. But Kosov, by that time, like his friend Broderick, who worked on Wall Street, decided for himself that his path should lie in Hollywood.
In Los Angeles, friends were able to convince the founder of FedEx Frederick W. Smith that they would make reliable partners, and formed the company Alcon Entertainment. Things at first did not work out – their first film, “Happy Missing” failed at the box office. But luck still loves those who take risks and believe in themselves. Next came such films as My Dog Skip, Where's My Car, Dude?, Insomnia, P.S. I Love You, which brought recognition and box office success, and in 2009 came the sports drama.

Since then, the filmmaker has produced many other interesting films, including the family film “The Story of a Dolphin”, the remake of “On the Crest of a Wave”, the detective thriller “Prisoners”, a fantastic series.
