Clients joining Rosicker and Ferrantino at Quest include Emmy winner Brendan Hunt, the co-creator and star of the Apple TV+ smash Ted Lasso, as well as Matt Jones (Bob Hearts Abishola, Breaking Bad), Kiele Sanchez (Station 19), Rachel Marsh (Unstable), Ever Carradine (The Handmaid’s Tale), Adrian Pasdar (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.), Emily Pendergast (Veep), Duane Henry (NCIS), three-time Daytime Emmy winner Chandler Massey (Days of Our Lives), Christina Moore (I Believe in Santa), McKenzie Chinn (Will Trent) and A.J. Langer (Private Practice), among others.
In a statement to Deadline on the launch of Quest, Rosicker said, “Moving into management is a challenge I need right now. I am grateful to my Gersh family for last three decades. It was a pleasure to learn from everyone there. I’ve watched Brian build a successful business and I am eager to embrace this next quest, (ahem) with him.”
Added Ferrantino, “I’m thrilled to partner up with Paul for this next chapter and look forward to all the exciting times ahead.”
