A new report from the Hollywood Reporter says that Theresa Kang-Lowe (pictured), longtime partner and entertainment agency WME, has departed the agency to form her own management company. Through the new management company, Blue Marble Pictures, Kang-Lowe has already inked a new overall deal with Apple TV+.

Oscar winner Alfonso Cuaron, who signed as an agency client with Kang-Lowe last year, will be moving with her to her new agency. For those unfamiliar, WME is a long-running talent agency.
