Steven Soderbergh has been in the entertainment industry since the late ‘80s, when he made his directorial debut with one of his top movies, Sex, Lies, and a Videotape. This modern indie film pioneer has since expanded towards film series like Ocean Twelve and Magic Mike, as well as lending his talents to the streaming services Netflix and Max. But one thing that is most concerning to Soderbergh is streaming services hiding their numbers, as “they don’t want Wall Street to look under the hood.”
As the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes continue, there have been a lot of issues raised like better compensation for performers and writers as well as the fear of AI replacing jobs done by humans. Steven Soderbergh has his own pressing concerns, as he said in an interview with Defector that he’s never seen the data of the shows and movies he’s made for Max services.
