More on Joe Roth
Description from Wikipedia:
Joe Roth (born June 13, 1948) is an American film executive, producer and film director.
Roth co-founded Morgan Creek Productions in 1987 and was chairman of Twentieth Century Fox (1989–1993), Caravan Pictures (1993–1994), and Walt Disney Studios (1994–2000) before founding Revolution Studios in 2000.
Over the course of his career, he has produced over 40 films, and has directed six to date, including 1990's Coupe de Ville (in which a Cadillac Coupe de Ville plays a big part) and 2001's America's Sweethearts.
Roth, who was ranked 6th in Premiere Magazines 2003 Hollywood Power List, produced the 76th annual Academy Awards.
Roth announced that in October 2007, when Revolution's distribution deal with Sony Pictures ends, Revolution Studios will close and he will join Sony as a producer.
On November 13, 2007, Roth was introduced as the majority owner of a Seattle, Washington-based Major League Soccer franchise along with Paul Allen. Seattle Sounders FC -- which will call Qwest Field home -- is set to begin play in 2009.
