\"\"William Morris Endeavor (WME), one of the top A-List talent representation agencies in the entertainment industry, represents over 4,000 clients. \u00a0Their client list ranges from Matt Damon to Christian Bale to Eminemand Rhianna. \u00a0Their top agents include Ari Emanuel, Patrick Whitesell, and Dan Aloni. \u00a0WME came about in 2009 when William Morris Agency joined with the Endeavor Agency to create a superior and\u00a0sophisticated\u00a0agency. \u00a0They have offices in 5 different locations: Beverly Hills, Miami Beach, London, Nashville, and NYC.<\/p>\n

The big news of the day associated with WME: who is signed, who is dropped, and the new agents that are either hired or fired.<\/p>\n

Dan Aloni, one of the big agents to be fired from CAA, another reputable and leading talent agency, went to WME and brought many top clients with him. \u00a0Several of Aloni’s clients will not leave CAA because they have been there for so long and are more loyal to the agency than the agent. \u00a0Just recently on April 24th, Director of “Wedding Crashers”, David Dobkin, has decided to follow his 15-year agent Dan Aloni to WME.<\/p>\n

New clients added to the WME power house roster following Dan Aloni: Directer Jay Roach of “Game Changer”, Director Michel Gondry, Director Tom Shadyac, Jim Carrey, and Chris Nolan, to name a few. \u00a0This change can show the loyalty actors have in regards to sticking with their agent.<\/p>\n

Below are the pictures and a short bio of new WME clients:<\/p>\n
