Thrilled to share my chat with the fierce Elizabeth Cantillon. She is a producer and principal of Bisous Pictures, a romance label under MRC Film. She most recently produced an adaptation of Jane Austen’s PERSUASION starring Dakota Johnson which is streaming on Netflix.
An LA native, Elizabeth has extensive experience working as a studio executive and a producer. She also had a brief stint at UCLA where she taught screenplay development for producers. She recommended a few excellent books and resources that I highly recommend you check out. Links are in the show notes on
She previously served as EVP, Production at Columbia Pictures. During her tenure there, , she oversaw Academy Award winners THE SOCIAL NETWORK, THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO and the last four installments of James Bond movies CASINO ROYALE, QUANTUM OF SOLACE, SKYFALL and SPECTRE.
Overall, the films she has worked on as a studio executive have garnered more than $300 million at the box office worldwide.
In 2014, Elizabeth left Columbia Pictures to go back to her first love of producing with a first look deal at Sony under, “The Cantillion Company.”
Elizabeth is resilience and patience personified. Gems from our chat include:
- The difference between a studio executive’s role and a producer’s role
- How true gender parity in film production can be achieved
- The importance of setting boundaries for yourself
