Alexis Garcia

Alexis Garcia, born and raised in Miami, Florida, is an accomplished film producer, studio executive, and entrepreneur, widely recognized for his role in launching and scaling high-impact film ventures across the independent and studio landscape. He is the founder of CAT5, a turnkey production and financing company focused on high-concept, independently made action films, and co-founder of Brass Knuckle Films alongside acclaimed director Robert Rodriguez.

​

Most recently, Garcia served as Head of Film at Fifth Season (formerly Endeavor Content), where he led the production and financing of over 40 films over 5 years. His portfolio includes major releases such as Ambulance (dir. Michael Bay), 80 for Brady (Paramount), The Peanut Butter Falcon (SXSW Audience Award), Monkey Man (dir. Dev Patel), The Long Game (SXSW Grand Jury Winner), Brawl in Cell Block 99 (starring Vince Vaughn), and The Lost Daughter (3 Academy Award nominations). In 2025, three of Garcia's movies reached audiences in a major way - A Working Man (Amazon/MGM, starring Jason Statham) opened #1 at the U.S. box office, Nonnas (Netflix) opened #1 on Netflix and became one of the platform’s top titles of the year, and Friendship (SXSW premiere, starring Tim Robinson and Paul Rudd) opened as the year's top grossing limited theatrical release and was heralded as the return of the R rated cinematic comedy.

​

Earlier, as a partner and agent at WME, Garcia helped package and sell hundreds of critically acclaimed and commercially successful films, including Drive (Nicolas Winding Refn, starring Ryan Gosling), The Nice Guys (Shane Black, starring Gosling and Russell Crowe), and The Favourite (Yorgos Lanthimos). He also spearheaded strategic initiatives such as the creation of foreign sales company Bloom, and led Endeavor’s expansion into China, brokering talent ventures (Sylvester Stallone, David Goyer, Russo Brothers) and co-production deals with major studios like Perfect World, Tencent, and Village Roadshow.

​

Garcia began his career as an entertainment attorney before joining Endeavor in 2007, rising to become a partner and later helping spin out the agency’s content arm into what became Endeavor Content. He played a pivotal role in the division’s growth from a sales and service operation into a vertically integrated production studio, culminating in its acquisition by CJ ENM.

A graduate of Vanderbilt University with a JD from UCLA School of Law, Garcia continues to drive innovation in film production by bridging traditional Hollywood models with cutting-edge audience engagement and alternative financing strategies. He and his family (Tracy, Noa, Ozi and Busta) are proud Coconut Grove residents, having moved from Los Angeles in August of 2021.
