Ryan Kavanaugh Relativity Media Kavanaugh founded Relativity Media after briefly serving as a consultant to other small businesses and venture capitalists. In the late 1990s, he asked his father for a $50,000 Loan to start his own hedge fund; his father declined, but this did not dissuade Ryan Kavanaugh, whose aim was to use mathematical tools to connect financing and movie projects in a more efficient manner than traditional Hollywood finance. At Relativity, he created what is now known as "the model", a montecarlo model designed to predict the odds of a given film being successful. Career Films produced Kavanaugh has produced such films as Immortals, Limitless, The Fighter, Mirror Mirror, Safe Haven, and Beyond the Lights. He executive produced The Social Network, which received eight Oscar nominations. His other films include Mamma Mia!, 3:10 to Yuma, Grown Ups and Dear John. He lost his bid for an Academy film credit as producer of The Fighter.
