Synopsis: In an age of legends and glamour Jack Warner reigned supreme. From humble beginnings, he and his brothers founded Warner Bros. studios. For over fifty years he held the crown, and with it made movie history—from flickering silents to wide-screen color epics. An insider’s account of the man Bette Davis, Errol Flynn, James Cagney, Edward G. Robinson, Humphrey Bogart, and Bugs Bunny called “boss.”

Featuring archival interviews with Shirley Jones, Debbie Reynolds, Sheila MacRae, Jack Warner, Jr., Neal Gabler, Jack Warner, and many more. Narrated by Efrem Zimbalist, Jr.

Filmmaker Gregory Orr adds, “We take movies and TV shows for granted now, but there was a time not long ago when the whole experience had to be invented: The stories. The stars. The studios that produced them. I wanted to capture Jack Warner and his generation as real people who built this industry, and not just as handprints in the pavement.”

Jack L. Warner: The Last Mogul will be available on all major streaming and cable platforms in the US and Canada on May 9, 2023 followed by DVD at major online retailers.
