Q & A: How Willimon Runs Fincher's 'House ...Hollywood Comes Calling for Nate Silver -- Future Box Office Guru?
While Silver has a lit agent, he is currently unrepresented in entertainment. A source tells the Hollywood Reporter that Silver could be best suited to box-office analysis or correspondence for TV news programs, as well as radio and public speaking. This seems to line up with the little info Silver would give on the offers he's been fielding since November 6, which include shows focusing on "how statistics are shaping society and how they solve problems."
On the possibility of box-office predicitons, Silver says he sees it as an appealing arena open to "'Moneyball'-style appraising."
Silver has previous experience with Hollywood; he's done consulting for an undisclosed studio. But word is that his initial stab at box office prognosticating was not as easy to handle as polls and stats.
