Amy Pascal Says Perseverance Remains Key to Making Good Projects: ‘Just Kill Yourself to Get It Done’ | Video

Power Women Summit: The former Sony executive joins EPs from “Anora,” “True Detective: Night Country” and “Abbott Elementary” to discuss the challenges Hollywood producers face in a changing industry

Amy Pascal knows Hollywood changed significantly from her days as chairperson of Sony Pictures Entertainment. But the producer of “Challengers” says the key to making a good film — or any project — during this season of change is simple: perseverance.

“At this point, I really only want to work on things that I want on my gravestone, because that’s coming … but you just have to love [an idea] so much that you don’t care how hard it is,” Pascal said Tuesday at TheWrap’s 2024 Power Women Summit. “Once you feel something and you think it’s worth it, just kill yourself to get it done.”
