Los Angeles, CA - Golden Globe-winning and Academy Award and Emmy-nominated actress Taraji P.

Henson alongside Jamila Jordan-Theus, Head of Development and Production at TPH Entertainment, and their team will hit the ground running, developing a slate of groundbreaking scripted and unscripted projects for FOX Entertainment Studios.

"Taraji brings tremendous vision, commitment and creative fearlessness to every project, making her a truly inspiring partner," said FOX Entertainment Studios' Hannah Pillemer, Head of Scripted and Allison Wallach, Head of Unscripted. "Together with TPH Entertainment, we're excited to empower new voices and develop projects that both entertain and captivate today's audiences."

"We are thrilled to work in partnership with Fernando Szew and the entire FOX Entertainment Studio team as we continue to produce thoughtful and bold stories alongside authentic voices," said Henson and Jordan-Theus. "TPH stands on the pillars of community, so we are eager to embrace this storytelling collective and deliver compelling creative to audiences across the globe."

Taraji P. Henson is an Academy Award-nominated actor, producer, #1 New York Times best-selling author, entrepreneur, and mental health advocate whose influence extends far beyond the screen. Known for her EMMY-nominated and Golden Globe-winning portrayal of Cookie Lyon on Empire and acclaimed performances in The Color Purple, Hidden Figures, and The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Henson continues to shape culture through powerful storytelling. Most recently, she starred in Netflix's Straw and Peacock's record-breaking Fight Night. Her Broadway debut alongside Cedric the Entertainer in Debbie Allen's Joe Turner's Come and Gone marks her latest creative chapter, following a Tony Award nomination for producing Jaja's African Hair Braiding.
