Paul Feig Launches Digital Content Company Powderkeg To Highlight Female, LGBTQ, and POC Voices

This new banner launched by Paul Feig and headed up by Laura Fischer will “…focus on scripted and unscripted series as well as incubator programs”. 

It’s nice to see that Feig is expanding from his passion for highlighting women in comedy (just take a look at his filmography from the last several years). This move also comes on top of a doing an “inclusion rider” on his projects and promoting a diverse work environment. 

Needless to say, we’re very curious to see what comes from all of this and if the company will live up to its name.
