Gabrielle Ebron

Gabrielle Ebron’s got that rare mix of sharp instincts and serious hustle—she’s not just another film grad with a diploma collecting dust. She finished up at Wesleyan, top of her class in Film Studies, and already had the Akiva Goldsman Prize for her script Like Mother, Like Daughter before most of us even knew where the library was. After college, she packed up for LA and landed at Homegrown Pictures, not as some high-flying exec, but as an assistant. Honestly, that’s where most people would’ve gotten lost in the coffee runs and calendar chaos, but nah—Gabrielle just soaked up everything from Stephanie Allain, one of the best in the biz. Did she stay an assistant for long? Nope. Less than a year in, she was bumped up to Creative Executive. That’s actually wild if you know how slow Hollywood can move. Suddenly, she’s got the keys to the kingdom: hunting for fresh storytellers, developing projects that actually feel new, not cookie-cutter knockoffs. She’s the one who pushed Homegrown’s first Asian American project through the door, which, let’s be real, is a big deal considering how behind the industry still is on real representation. Now she’s got Plainview, her first TV show, basically speeding toward production. If you’re watching what’s next in film and TV, Gabrielle’s one of those names you’ll want to remember—she’s not just chasing trends; she’s setting them.
