EXCLUSIVE: Strand Entertainment has promoted Aileen Lewis to Manager, recognizing the longtime team member’s growing roster and contributions to their talent and production efforts.
Lewis has been with Strand Entertainment for more than three and a half years, starting out as an assistant. She has built a reputation for her collaborative approach and is eyed as someone who will be a strong advocate for emerging and established actors alike.
So far, Lewis has worked with talents like Daisy Jelley, who landed the lead role in the upcoming Netflix series Poser, and Tannaz Shastiri, who will be seen coming up in Prime Video’s Joseph of Egypt. On the production side, she’s contributed to the development of projects including Shredded, written and to be directed by Strand client Josh Lawson.
A proud Midwesterner originally from St. Louis, Missouri, Lewis attended DePaul University in Chicago before relocating to Los Angeles to pursue a career in entertainment. In her new role, she will continue to develop her roster of clients across film and television while expanding her responsibilities across the company’s production slate.
“We value Aileen’s hard work and commitment since day one,” said the Strand Entertainment principals in a joint statement to Deadline. “We are very excited, for the next chapter in her career.”
