Bekerman, Yurkovich and Ordanis will serve as partners and producers in the new venture, which will oversee film and television projects, supporting them from inception through distribution and packaging with the Good Question Media development fund.
Their company name represents their primary ethos, reminding the producers to ask the most fundamental “good question” of all before signing on to a project: “Why does his story need to exist?” and “Are we the right people to help it flourish?” It’s unique stories like those and “Slash/Back” — an action/sci-fi thriller that follows teen heroes doing battle with aliens, from filmmaker Nyla Innuksuk — that the team look for in future projects.
Good Question Media is currently based in Toronto and Vancouver. But, as the company aims to affirm their identity as producers based in Canada versus Canadian producers, they will expand to Los Angeles with the hiring of Jordan Hart, who has been tapped to serve as Vice President of Development. Hart will oversee Good Question Media’s film and television slate, which currently includes “Slash/Back,” as well as “Ivy” for Netflix, which will star Alice Braga.
