Talent agent Chris Dennis has joined management/production company Underground as a manager. For the past five years, Dennis was at Paradigm as a talent agent. Because of his switch from agenting to management, it is unclear which clients will follow him to Underground. “The hardest thing about growing a company is finding the right people to bring into the fold,” said Underground’s Trevor Engelson. “With Chris we’ve found the perfect fit for us, a true hustler with a gigantic future over here at Underground.” Best known for its literary business, Underground has been working on building its talent side over the past couple of years. Dennis joins managers Engelson, Evan Silverberg and Josh Turner McGuire in the LA office and Noah Rothman who recently joined the company’s NYC office.

CDE is as sharp as they come. He is one of the few that really and truly cares about his clients. Glad to see he jumped from Paradigm so he could persue clients on his own terms.
Having dealt with Chris over the years, I can say that he’s a total pro and will be a huge asset to Underground.
Love the Underground team, good luck Chris! Great company!
Having worked with Chris, I can say with confidence that he’s one of the dopest cats around. Smart move on Underground’s part as they continue taking Hollywood by storm. Hear hear to CD and Underground!
Sweet but another lit manager in LA would be sweeter. Seriously.
Guy is a killer! I wish him the best. He will no doubt do very well over there.
Do people like working with Underground? Who are their clients? Who are Chris Dennis’ clients? Who is Chris Dennis? Is this a joke?
Kid’s a star. Now that he’s free to make his own moves and build his business, watch out. Big people should be signing with Chris and fast.
Score one for Underground. Chris is smart, hard working, funny, cares about his clients & coworkers, has a great eye for talent and they love him back. The sieve that is Paradigm horde the me-first hacks and let the good ones continue to get away.
Congrats on joining Trevor’s growing empire. He’s the best.
Love that guy and am glad to see he jumped ship. One of the few nice ones (formerly) at Paradigm. Congrats Chris!
Good move for Underground. Chris smart, cool and a fierce advocate for his clients.
