Managers Jake Miller & Karli Doumanis Join 42 With ‘Shōgun’ Star Anna Sawai Among Clients

EXCLUSIVE: Jake Miller and Karli Doumanis have joined production/management company 42 as talent managers, sources tell Deadline. Based in Los Angeles, they come from Zero Gravity Management.

Both are bringing their client rosters. That includes one of the hottest actors at the moment, Anna Sawai, who won an Emmy Sunday for Shōgun and also stars in Apple TV+’s Pachinko. She is managed by Miller.

The duo is expected to ramp up actor representation at the U.S. operation of the London- and Los Angeles-based 42, minority owned by Lionsgate. The Los Angeles office, led by 42 Partners Josh Varney and Ben Pugh, has been more lit-focused to date.

In addition to Varney and Pugh, the 42 leadership includes fellow partners Kate Buckley, Cathy King and Simon Beresford as well as COO David O’Donoghue.

Doumanis had been at Zero Gravity for over a year. Before that, she spent three years at Brave Artists Management.
