Production Team Highlight: Mark Heidelberger

Here's a Will to Win production team highlight to kick off the weekend: Producer Mark Heidelberger!

With an exciting career spanning over two decades in Hollywood, Mark has built an impressive portfolio as a producer on such films as Harsh Times (2005) starring Christian Bale, Eva Longoria, and J.K. Simmons, It’s Not You, It’s Me (2013) starring Vivica Fox, and The Basement (2018) starring Mischa Barton. In addition to being a producer, Mark has worn “many hats” working on movies, from being a unit production manager and post supervisor, to line producing and as a development consultant on a variety of projects. During the development phase on the Will to Win movie — among many other responsibilities — Mark is working with top talent agencies, such as William Morris Endeavor (WME), to masterfully “package” the project.

Aspiring filmmakers can watch Mark’s interviews with Film Courage on YouTube, where he covers topics like the producer’s wishlist for screenplays, rookie filmmaker pitfalls, and more industry insights! Watch here.

Mark’s filmmaking philosophy is simple: Make movies that you’d love to watch yourself. Producers Russ Kirkpatrick & Andy Kinslow are thrilled to have Mark as part of the Will To Win movie!
