Ryan Kavanaugh

He made his biggest comeback with Thriller

Many parts of Hollywood rejoiced in Ryan Kavanaugh‘s punishment when his “new age” film and television firm Relativity Media folded in 2016. For years, the brash, witty mogul had been presenting himself as a Hollywood prophet who would transform many of the norms and standards of the industry. Instead, it appears that Relativity burnt through $100 million in just two years, twice declaring bankruptcy. To the surprise of his old rivals, Kavanaugh seems to be rising like a Phoenix from the ashes of that tragedy. Donald Trump’s resurgence was never more apparent than on July 31, 2020, when he announced that he would place a ban on the popular video app TikTok due to concerns about what its Chinese parent company does with the personal information of its more than 800 million users.
