Roundtable Entertainment’s Unscripted Division Launches with New Gavin Rossdale Project “E.A.T.”
Fresh off its launch, multi-platform production and distribution company Roundtable Entertainment has partnered with artist, musician, and actor Gavin Rossdale for its first unscripted project, “E.A.T. with Gavin Rossdale”.
“E.A.T.” is a premium production value, intimate conversation series in which Gavin invites big name celebrity guests to his home in the Hollywood Hills, where he designs, prepares and serves them a sumptuous three course meal. While they relax, eat, converse and even jam, they cast aside their celebrity personas to reveal what really makes them tick. Executive producers are Gavin Rossdale, Lainie Strouse, Dominic Ianno and Alex Dundas.
Said Rossdale, “Roundtable are the exact partners I’ve been looking for to produce this project. They understand my vision and will help execute a compelling series in which we get to see behind the public persona of people we know and admire for their work. This show is about connecting more deeply with them, hearing their stories, walking in their shoes. It’s hard to be surprised anymore; but the simplest surprises are the human revelations that occur over food and drink.”
Roundtable co-founder and Head of Unscripted, Alex Dundas said, “We’re thrilled to be working with Gavin. We all know the power of his music – but “E.A.T.” reveals so many new layers: his creativity in the kitchen, his empathy as a host and the authenticity he brings to his closest friendships. It’s fascinating conversations over fantastic food - and we're getting a seat at the table!”
“Projects like this are the reason why we founded Roundtable – to focus on the things we’re passionate about, that have deeper layers beyond face value, that have something meaningful to offer.”
Roundtable Entertainment is founded by media industry veterans Dominic Ianno, John Baldecchi, Alex Dundas and Griffin Gmelich and produces scripted and unscripted TV, feature film and podcasts, in addition to distributing both owned IP and third-party content to platforms globally.
Gavin Rossdale is represented by UTA and management firm YM&U.
