Jennifer Gibgot (Producer) began her producing career in 1995 running Tapestry Films. During her eight-year tenure there, she set up numerous projects and produced such successful films as “She’s All That” and “The Wedding Planner,” starring Jennifer Lopez and Matthew McConaughey. Gibgot hired her brother, Adam Shankman, who was already an established choreographer, to helm “The Wedding Planner,” which launched his directing career.

In 2003, Gibgot and Shankman formed Offspring Entertainment and signed a first-look deal at Disney. Gibgot went on to serve as an executive producer on the Shankman-directed films “The Pacifier,” starring Vin Diesel, and the family comedy “Cheaper by the Dozen 2,” starring Steve Martin and Bonnie Hunt. In addition, Gibgot and Shankman teamed to produce the dance movie hit “Step Up” and its even more successful sequel, “Step Up 2: The Streets.”

Under the Offspring banner, Gibgot and Shankman executive produced the 2007 smash hit musical “Hairspray,” starring John Travolta, Queen Latifah, Michelle Pfeiffer, Christopher Walken, Zac Efron and Nikki Blonsky. “Hairspray” received several honors, including a Golden Globe® nomination for Best Picture—Musical or Comedy
