About this listen
In this episode of Breaking the Biz, we sit down with Paul Hemstreet, an award-winning producer and multidisciplinary creative with over 25 years of experience shaping some of the most beloved franchises in entertainment. From his tenure at Warner Bros.—working on global hits like Harry Potter, The Matrix, The Hobbit, and the DC Universe—to his current role mentoring neurodivergent talent at Autism in Entertainment, Paul brings a rare blend of high-level industry insight and heartfelt advocacy.
Paul shares how producing live events and content across departments, continents, and technologies has shaped his approach to storytelling—and why creating space for voices on the Spectrum has become his most meaningful work yet. With deep reflections on parenting, career pivots, and creative leadership, Paul offers a candid look into what it truly takes to produce content that inspires hope, fosters inclusivity, and engages audiences around the world.
