The docuseries traces his path to success, which was riddled with obstacles, adversity and tragedy as he journeyed from Japan to Peru to the U.S.<\/p>\n<p>Filmmaker Matt Tyrnauer (<em>Valentino: The Last Emperor<\/em>, <em>Where\u2019s My Roy Cohn?<\/em>,<em> Studio 54<\/em>, <em>Scott and the Secret History of Hollywood<\/em>,<em>\u00a0Citizen Jane: Battle for the City<\/em>) will direct the series. He will also executive produce alongside Corey Reeser, co-founder of Altimeter; Nunnari; Stuart Ford, founder of AGC Studios; and AGC\u2019s Lourdes Diaz, president of television, and BJ Levin, executive VP of nonfiction. Reeser will serve as showrunner.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo help a world-class filmmaker such as Matt tell of the journeys past and present of a global culinary and cultural icon such as Matsuhisa-san is an exhilarating prospect,\u201d said Ford. \u201cWe are therefore thrilled to be working with our partners at Hollywood Gang and Altimeter to bring this ambitious multicultural docuseries to life.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Nunnari said, \u201cI have known Nobu for so much of my life; he is a man that I profoundly respect, both for his craft and for his wise approach to life. I am thrilled to help share Nobu\u2019s inspiring journey with the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is one of the greatest, most inspiring and interesting stories I have ever had the opportunity to tell,\u201d noted Tyrnauer. \u201cNobu\u2019s reinvention of a cuisine, his staggering success in redefining the food culture worldwide and his push into the hotel business would be impressive and interesting enough for a series, but I am floored by the unknown story of the man. He\u2019s a study in perseverance and triumph over adversity\u2014a self-made individual, whose career almost crashed and burned. There are plot twists, great lows and, more recently, staggering highs. I have not encountered a subject for a cinema verit\u00e9 film like this since my first film, <em>Valentino: The Last Emperor<\/em>. There are a lot of similarities, in fact, between Valentino and Nobu: both redefined their art forms and are great survivors in the toughest of businesses.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AGC Television, Gianni Nunnari\u2019s Hollywood Gang and Altimeter are co-producing the four-part docuseries NOBU about world-renowned chef and hotelier Nobu Matsuhisa.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1412,"featured_media":18013,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[6166,6167,6168],"class_list":["post-18012","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-agc-television","tag-altimeter","tag-hollywood-gang","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>AGC Television Co-Producing Nobu Docuseries - TVREAL<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/agc-television-co-producing-nobu-docuseries\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"AGC Television Co-Producing Nobu Docuseries - TVREAL\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"AGC Television, Gianni Nunnari\u2019s Hollywood Gang and Altimeter are co-producing the four-part docuseries NOBU about world-renowned chef and hotelier Nobu Matsuhisa.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/agc-television-co-producing-nobu-docuseries\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVREAL\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2022-04-29T13:00:49+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2022-04-29T13:15:02+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2017\/07\/AGCTelevision-NobuMatsuhisa-0422.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"600\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"450\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Jamie Stalcup\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Jamie Stalcup\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"2 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/agc-television-co-producing-nobu-docuseries\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/agc-television-co-producing-nobu-docuseries\/\",\"name\":\"AGC Television Co-Producing Nobu Docuseries - TVREAL\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2022-04-29T13:00:49+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2022-04-29T13:15:02+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#\/schema\/person\/0da12602224807cc7b179b8405018deb\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/agc-television-co-producing-nobu-docuseries\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/agc-television-co-producing-nobu-docuseries\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/agc-television-co-producing-nobu-docuseries\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"AGC Television Co-Producing Nobu Docuseries\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/\",\"name\":\"TVREAL\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#\/schema\/person\/0da12602224807cc7b179b8405018deb\",\"name\":\"Jamie Stalcup\",\"description\":\"Jamie Stalcup is the executive editor of World Screen.
