Like never before, Hollywood is embracing Israel in a multi-faceted way. American TV networks have been gobbling up Israeli series format, with B'tipul becoming HBO's In Treatment, Mythological X becoming CBS's The Ex List and most recently, the Adir Miller comedy Ramzor being picked up by FOX. Israeli-made films have also made a big splash in the last decade, with movies like The Band's Visit, Waltz with Bashir, Beaufort and Ajami all receiving critical acclaim and for the last three, Oscar nominations.
So it was logical that Israeli actors, directors and behind the scenes makers of all types would be the next natural import for Hollywood. With their exotic good looks, a Middle Eastern mystique and a full canister of talent, the Israeli imports to Hollywood have made an indelible mark on the industry. "Hollywood loves the next cool thing," Danny Sussman, a talent manager at the LA-based Brillstein Entertainment Partners, told Israeli newspaper Yediot Aharonot recently. "And because of all of the series and all of the films from Israel, artists coming here and crossing over is now the next cool thing."
