AI Management Firm Collage Adds Kelly Miller and Jack Styne as Partners
Collage, a management firm built around artificial intelligence, has added two new partners, Kelly Miller and Jack Styne. The news was reported by Deadline on 9 November 2026.
Collage was launched by Dante DeSario and Michael Lambert. DeSario is a former film agent at United Talent Agency, known as UTA, one of the big agencies that represent actors, writers and directors. A management firm works alongside creative people, helping them find work and shape their careers.
Miller will focus on growing Collage's presence in television. Before joining the firm, she held executive posts at Hulu, the streaming service, at the production company Fifth Season, and at BBC Studios, the commercial arm of the British broadcaster. Her job is to bring more TV work into the firm's orbit.
Styne will specialise in film. He previously worked in the Global Client Strategy Group at Creative Artists Agency, usually called CAA, another major talent agency. He later moved to 30WEST, a company in the entertainment business, before joining Collage.
The firm says it wants to connect studios, streamers, filmmakers and brands with a curated roster of what it calls AI-native production companies. In plain terms, those are production companies that build their work around AI tools from the start, rather than adding them later. "Curated" means Collage chooses which companies it works with, rather than taking on everyone who applies.
The move matters for people working in the business because it shows where some management firms are placing their bets. Television and film are both being reshaped by AI tools, and a firm that puts a television specialist and a film specialist at the top is signalling it wants to work across both. For viewers, the effect would only show up over time, in the shows and films that these companies help make.
What happens next is not yet clear from the announcement. Collage has not, in the reporting so far, set out how many clients it represents or when its first deals under the new partners will be announced.
