Blair and Mansoor to helm new production company

Literary agent and producer Neil Blair is teaming up with award-winning producer Kat Mansoor to launch Snowstorm Productions, a London-based film and TV venture.

Mansoor, who is a Bafta-nominated producer, will helm a range of documentary films and series. Her most recent film "Cow", was directed by Academy Award-winning Andrea Arnold and premiered at Cannes Film Festival. She will be releasing "Rebellion" in March 2022 via a major streaming service.

"I am really looking forward to this new challenge, working with Neil and taking my producing career to new heights," Mansoor said. "At Snowstorm I will champion unique icons, important stories and creative filmmaking. Our vision is to produce a slate of incredible films and series from around the globe."

Mansoor will also work closely with The Blair Partnership’s agency director, Rory Scarfe, to explore opportunities for collaboration.

Blair, who is chairman of The Blair Partnership, added: "I am enormously proud to announce this new venture in an area I am so passionate about and look forward to watching Kat thrive. We want to give talent the opportunity to be more creatively and commercially involved in their projects and this new venture will do just that. With Kat, we have the opportunity, to increase our creative ambition. She has a formidable reputation, and I can’t wait to see what she will do for Snowstorm."
