Selome Hailu There’s a quote from the 13th century Persian poet Rumi that sticks with Dakota Johnson as she navigates the early years of running her production company: “Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing, there is a field. I’ll meet you there.”When asked what kinds of films TeaTime Pictures is looking to produce, it’s Rumi that Johnson returns to: “There’s no credo. There’s no mandate.
It’s not like we make only one kind of movie with one kind of person. There are so many different worlds and people inside my mind and in my heart that I want to be able to to amplify,” she said in a conversation moderated by associate features editor Jenelle Riley at the Variety Entertainment Marketing Summit presented by Deloitte. Johnson co-founded TeaTime with former Netflix development exec Ro Donnelly in 2019 and brought on former Boat Rocker vice chair Katie O’Connell as a partner in 2021.
While discussing TeaTime’s goal to seek out stories that struggle to get produced elsewhere, O’Connell shared a story about working with Zoe Lister-Jones to set upcoming comedy series “Slip” at Roku.“I said to Zoe, ‘You should do something fun and cool. The new ‘Sex and the City’ has just come out — write something younger!’” O’Connell said. “Zoe was like, ‘I [already] wrote it.
I wrote seven episodes. But I pitched it everywhere. Nobody wanted it.’”The series follows a 30-something woman who feels restless in her marriage even though it’s going well, and journeys through parallel universes as she tries to find herself.

This time, it’s the first male actor in the female-heavy ensemble and quite the intriguing addition: French star and actor of Algerian descent, Tahar Rahim.
Thanks to the box-office success of “Venom: Let There Be Carnage,” which raked in over $500 million worldwide, Sony Pictures has high hopes for its future Spidey-verse movies.
