Rudin's efforts are both low art (Aloha and Zoolander2) and finer fare -- he produced SteveJobs and ExMachina, both of which were nominated for Oscars. Next up: his Broadway revivals of TheCrucible and Hello,Dolly! (starring Bette Midler), as well as a new take on ToKillaMockingbird, to be adapted by Aaron Sorkin.
