Euro Actresses Melina Matthews Sign With Elev8on, Stir Buzz in Hollywood!

BREAKING NEWS: La Peste and Olympo star Melina Matthews has just joined forces with France’s Elev8on Management for her European representation.

Elev8on Management has also welcomed Ana Dumitrascu, the leading actress in Diary of a Chambermaid, which is a contender at the Directors’ Fortnight, along with Indonesian actress Asmara Abigail, featured in Jeremias Nyangoen’s Black Coffee, a film competing in Critics Week.

Matthews, who was born in Spain to Welsh and French parents and is fluent in four languages, embodies the “ideal cross-European profile” Elev8on seeks to encompass, according to company co-founder Florent Lamy who spoke with Deadline.

“This partnership is significant for us as it represents our initial venture into representing top-tier European talent, enhancing our U.S. portfolio that we have managed in Europe over recent years,” Lamy explained.

Matthews has appeared in the Spanish film Silencio, Pedro Almodóvar’s The Room Next Door, Netflix’s Olympo, La Peste Season 2 on Movistar Plus+, and the BBC drama Thirteen with Jodie Comer. Recently, she starred in Rodrigo Sorogoyen’s El Ser Querido in the Official Selection at Cannes, which received a seven-minute standing ovation and features Javier Bardem and Marina Foïs. Goodfellas is in charge of international sales. She is set to appear next in The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon.

“Our presence at Cannes this year has been exceptionally strong, particularly as it highlights our new initiative: to steer talent management directly within Europe,” Lamy stated. “We are striving to establish a European counterpart to Range Media Partners, with a keen focus on highly capable, multilingual European talent who are a perfect fit for the global industry that no longer sees borders as a barrier.”
