EXCLUSIVE: We hear that three big agents from CAA –Matt Martin, Trevor Astbury and Adam Schweitzer– are heading over to WME.
Schweitzer’s clients include Oppenheimer Oscar winner Cillian Murphy, 2x Oscar winner Christoph Waltz, The Whale Best Actor Oscar winner Brendan Fraser, and Dune franchise actress Rebecca Ferguson.
Martin is a Motion Picture Lit agent working with clients such as John Francis Daley, Michael Walden, Jonathan Goldstein, Dean Fleischer Camp, John Swab, Stella Meghie, Paul Feig and Joe Wright. Martin came up through CAA.
Astbury also works in motion picture lit with clients such as Ridley Scott, James Wan, Leigh Whannel, Len Wiseman and A Minecraft Movie producer Roy Lee.
