Casey Wasserman

Casey Wasserman is a prominent Hollywood talent agent and the chairman of the LA28 Olympics organizing committee. He is the son of the famed Hollywood dealmaker Lew Wasserman. He's currently facing significant scrutiny due to the release of documents in the Jeffrey Epstein case, which revealed flirtatious email exchanges between him and Ghislaine Maxwell dating back to the early 2000s. These revelations have led to calls for his resignation from the LA28 Olympics post and prompted him to sell his talent agency, Wasserman. Several high-profile clients, including singer Chappell Roan, have left the agency. Wasserman has apologized for communicating with Maxwell but denies any ties to Epstein. The Los Angeles City Council has approved a measure urging an investigation into his ties to Epstein. These events have cast a shadow over the preparations for the 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles and raised concerns about key infrastructure projects.
