Co-Founder
As co-founder of his production company, Larraín is best known for producing films helmed by his brother Pablo Larraín, most notably 2016’s “Jackie” and 2021’s “Spencer,” which earned Natalie Portman and Kristen Stewart Oscar noms for playing Jacqueline Kennedy and Princess Diana, respectively. He produces films by other directors, too, including Sebastián Lelio (2017’s “A Fantastic Woman,” 2018’s “Gloria Bell,” starring Julianne Moore), Gaspar Antillo (2019’s “Nobody Knows I’m Here”) and Alexander Witt’s upcoming “Sayen.” In 2022, he was behind Spanish-language projects such as the miniseries “El Refugio” (Pantaya), the series “La Juaria” (HBO Max), “42 Days of Darkness” (Netflix) and “Señorita 89” (Lionsgate+). His brother’s next directorial effort, “El Conde,” a reimagining of Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet as a 250-year-old vampire, is underway.
