Endeavor’s Asylum Entertainment Group has forged a creative partnership with producer-director Scott Weintrob and his Large Eyes Entertainment.

Under the pact, LA-based Large Eyes will produce premium non-fiction long-form projects under Asylum’s umbrella.

Weintrob is behind titles including Savage x Fenty Show on Amazon Prime, the upcoming adventure series Orlando Bloom: To The Edge for Peacock and the feature-length documentary Built To Fail. He has also worked on the docuseries Home for Apple TV+, Fastest Car for Netflix and Skrrt With Offset for Roku Channel.

“I’m energized by the opportunity to collaborate with the innovative leadership at Asylum,” said Weintrob. “Our shared philosophy for premium, talent-led genre-bending content will allow us to push boundaries in this constantly evolving marketplace.”

Asylum was acquired by Endeavor in March 2023 and said the deal would allow it to ”supercharge its footprint” through domestic and international M&A. The group’s slate of reality, documentary and other unscripted series includes 30 for 30, Hillsong: A Megachurch Exposed, American Cartel, King of the Con, Sins of the Amish and How I Caught My Killer. It currently houses production companies The Content Group, Texas Crew Productions, Big City TV, Breaklight Pictures, and Audity.
