EXCLUSIVE: Archer Gray has today announced the promotion of Rebecca Choi to Vice President of Narrative Film and the addition of Kelsey Jackson in the newly established role of Vice President of Narrative Television.

The news follows the recent announcement of Vinay Singh being upped to CEO, as well as the company’s expansion into unscripted content with the hire of Liza Keckler, and the launch of its Co-Lab division headed by former Disney and Fox exec Jim Fielding.

It also precedes the bow of The Persian Version — a dramedy from writer-director Maryam Keshavarz, which will this week become Archer Gray’s sixth project to premiere at the Sundance Film Festival.

Both new VPs will help grow the company’s narrative slate under Archer Gray Partner and President of Narrative Production, Anne Carey — collaborating with a team now spanning unscripted content, live experiences, and brand and retail strategy. “I am very excited to expand Rebecca’s role at Archer Gray and to add Kelsey to the team,” said Carey. “Rebecca and Kelsey each bring unique perspectives to developing film and television narratives which are certain to resonate and expand on the company’s values.” “Archer Gray strives to shine a light on distinctive storytellers that inspire meaningful dialogue,” remarked Singh. “Rebecca’s and Kelsey’s work embodies that ethos completely.” Choi added that “working at Archer Gray for the past 8 years has been such a privilege.
