A rare instance of a manager becoming an agent. Then again, UTA can use more people whom Hollywood actually likes. (Just kidding.) 
Doug Johnson is telling clients right now that he’ll be joining UTA’s motion picture lit department after 6 years at Management 360. He reps Jordan Cahan (My Best Friend’s Girl), Frank Coraci (Click), Michael Gordon (300), Jim Hecht (Ice Age 2), Josh Safran (Gossip Girl), Lorene Scafaria (Nick & Norah’s Infinite Playlist), Brett Simon (Assassination Of A High School President), Albert Torres (Henry Poole), and others.
Editor-in-Chief Nikki Finke - tip her here.

UTA Lit. are kicking ass and taking names – they’ve already got agent extraordinaire David Kramer and now Doug Johnson… When my craft’s at the stage where I need representation, I’m so pounding on their doors…
Wonder who’s following him. Coraci left UTA with Nick Stevens, we’ll see. Yes, UTA lit is the best in the biz. Certainly the most original writers, materials. A shame they don’t have the talent dept. to match it.
Wait a second, WHY is the dude who wrote MY BEST FRIEND’S GIRL credited here as his client? Thought that movie was officially garbage.
Hmmm: you try getting a movie made, much less a credit on one. Any credited writer counts a lot more than a guy with a brilliant unproduced spec his girlfriend thinks is genius.
this guy’s clients are a joke
Good point “b”!!! Writers are so friggin annoying. (I happen to be one) Just curb the jealousy, shut up and WRITE!
Who doesn’t Hollywood like at UTA?
UTA cannot even come close to Paradigm’s lit department. Truth be told both agency lit departments are merely incubators for CAA, WMA and Endeavor. They are marvelous waiting rooms until your turn comes around and the presents you get while you wait definitely beats the holiday cookies another incubator is famous for!
Nostalgia is dead.
PS- ICM’s lit department is officially “writers rehab” or the place to go for the chemically dependent writers considering a short ride on the wagon!
