June 10, 2024 – Emmy-winning director, writer, and producer Alan Yang has signed an overall deal with Warner Bros. Television Group. This marks his first overall deal with the Studio.
Per Studio policy, terms were not disclosed. WBTVG can confirm it is an exclusive multi-year agreement that will make WBTVG Yang’s home for new TV projects.
Yang is co-creator of Apple TV+’s “Loot,” which recently aired its season two finale, as well as the co-creator, executive producer, and director of the Netflix series “Master of None,” for which he received the Emmy Award for Best Writing in a Comedy Series, becoming the first Asian-American recipient in the award’s history.
He served as an executive producer of the BAFTA-nominated Apple TV+ anthology series “Little America” and co-created the WGA-nominated Amazon Prime Video series “Forever.” Yang is also the director, writer, and producer of “Tigertail,” an intergenerational Taiwanese-American family drama inspired by his own family’s story. Previously, Yang was a writer, co-executive producer, and director for “Parks and Recreation,” for which he was nominated for an Emmy in 2015.
Yang is repped by WME and McKuin Frankel Whitehead.
