Lookbook and 1GLH Announce Partnership on Carpathia Feature Film and Documentary
Cannes, France, July 18, 2025 -- Lookbook Partners with 1GLH on Carpathia Feature and Documentary Projects
Newly formed Lookbook has partnered with NY-based capital group 1GLH across a variety of motion pictures. Lookbook has also finalized production and equity stakes in several high-profile projects, including the dramatic thriller Carpathia – the first feature to tell the daring story of the ship that saved the survivors of RMS Titanic – and its companion documentary feature about the deep-sea team making the first 3D mapping of the Carpathia's wreckage, from Croatia-based Pulsar Productions. The partners have begun the search for top-tier directors to helm both Carpathia projects, with anticipation of filming the documentary in June/July of 2026 and the feature in October/November 2026.
Lookbook's Strategic Direction into Non-Genre Projects
'This broader direction into non-genre film and television will mean even greater mass appeal in all markets,' said Lookbook founder Juan Pablo Reinoso. 'I'm especially thrilled about the Carpathia projects. From both the commercial tie-in value with Titanic about to celebrate its 30th Anniversary and the exciting true story of what the Captain of the Carpathia had to endure just to even get the ship there, they could not be more timely.' Reinoso also co-founded Firebook Entertainment, a global acquisitions, sales, and distribution company that specializes in genre films.
The Untold Story of Carpathia and Its Heroic Crew
'The three most frequently spoken words in the world are: God, Coca-Cola, and Titanic. Is it fair, though, to forget the Carpathia and its incredibly brave captain and crew, which saved over 700 lives from Titanic? We don't think so, and we know audiences will flock to finally see the true story of the tests the Carpathia had to endure to reach Titanic,' said Toni Kuran on behalf of Pulsar.
Lookbook's Vision for the Future of Filmmaking
'Juan has always displayed a passion for non-genre projects, so launching Lookbook and turning his attention to those kinds of projects makes perfect sense and is a logical next step,' Firebook co-founder John Moss added. 'He'll bring the same eye for top-tier projects to Lookbook that he has since we started Firebook.'
Strategic Partnerships for Talent and Global Collaborations
Lookbook has also partnered with Keli Price of Price Productions to oversee talent as well as assist in strategic global partnerships.
'I share Lookbook's filmmaker-first outlook, as well as their dedication to embracing diversity both in front of and behind the camera, and I'm excited to come on board and help provide a truly transparent strategy for every film we make and every company we partner with,' Price added.
Other Projects Picked Up by Lookbook at the Marché
Other projects picked up by Lookbook at this year's Marché include action-crime-drama Father, Where Art Thou?, starring Michael Jai White; Whirlwind, a western drama-thriller from award-winning writer-director Juan Pablo Reinoso featuring Amy Tyger (Foundation); Kismet, a sci-fi drama from award-winning director Giovanna Molina; action-thriller Civilian, from acclaimed director John J. Budion (Rockaway) starring Jack Kesy (Hellboy: The Crooked Man), with Cory Thompson and his REWIND banner; Spanish-English dance-rom-com Junior for award-winning writer-director Ben Peyser; and No Other Love, based on the acclaimed YA novel, for Katisha Shaw of DTRM. Several other projects were finalizing agreements as of this writing.
Lookbook is based in the USA, with roots throughout Europe, South & Central America, and Canada.

The Bag of Summer Is a BAB
Anna Barger was walking down the streets of Paris this spring with the necessities of her day stuffed into an oversize bag when inspiration struck. 'All a girl really needs on a solo day in a city,' she says in a TikTok video, 'is a trusty BAB.' From that point on, BAB, an acronym for 'Big Ass Bag,' has become a staple of Ms. Barger's wardrobe and vocabulary. The 26-year-old content creator is one of many women on social media who are lugging large totes and purses over their shoulders this summer, in what appears to be an emerging trend. 'It feels like girlhood because we've all carried a big bag with a bunch of stuff in it,' Ms. Barger said in an interview, later adding, 'We've all had that moment.' In the TV show 'Succession,' the character Tom Wambsgans ridiculed the concept, calling a Burberry tote a 'ludicrously capacious bag.' But the proponents of the current trend rave about the functionality of a BAB, and how they fill it with all the items one may need on a lengthy outing, including — but not limited to — multiple shades of lip gloss, hand sanitizer, a miniature fan, a kindle, a magazine, books, a computer, an iPad, a camera and Pilates socks. 'A girl with a BAB is a specific vibe,' Ms. Barger said. 'She's ready for the entire day.' Macy Hyman, a 24-year-old content creator in Boston, said the accessory was particularly helpful for people living in cities, because it could eliminate the need to return home between activities. 'I will leave super early in the morning and pack up my huge bag with me, with everything I'll possibly need, and just take it for the day,' Ms. Hyman said. A BAB can come in all shapes and sizes, and has no required designer pedigree. While Ms. Barger's latest BAB is a Miu Miu, the first tote she showcased came from Anthropologie. Others picked theirs up from flea markets and retail stores. (Several social media users said cross-body functionality, however, gave it bonus points.) The ultimate BAB, of course, was the original Birkin from Hermès, which recently sold at auction for $10 million. That bag, a prototype for what has become among the most coveted accessories in fashion, was crafted for the actress Jane Birkin so that she could hold all her essentials — diapers, cigarettes, notebooks and more — without spilling them. Maria Ochoa, a 19-year-old fashion student in New York City, said she was not aware that BAB was an 'actual' term that had been going around, because her penchant for carrying a large bag had already been a long-running joke among her and her friends. But she said she had seen its popularity grow over the last year. 'I think it's a really 'it' accessory right now,' Ms. Ochoa said. She carries everything she could need in her BAB, she said, including beauty products, a film camera and crystals 'for the good vibes.'

'I never wore them when I was with a man.' Fonda married French filmmaker Roger Vadim in 1965. During their eight-year marriage, the two lived in Paris and welcomed daughter Vanessa. The actress then wed activist Tom Hayden in 1973 and the two had son Troy Garity. In 1991, she found love again with CNN founder Ted Turner and the pair were married to for 10 years. She began dating record producer Richard Perry in 2009 and the couple split in 2017. While speaking with The Times, the Grace and Frankie star added that yoga pants are her most "treasured" item of clothing "because they are easy to put on and take off and they're comfortable." ! When asked to describe her style, Fonda used one word: "Simple!" However, she noted that her wardrobe has been more vibrant lately. "Since my hair has gone gray, I wear more color, including yellow and green," she explained. "Even I can look good in those colors, and not a lot of people can say that." Fonda first ditched her longtime blonde locks when she took the stage to present Best Picture at the 2020 Academy Awards sporting a gray pixie cut. She also wore a recycled crimson beaded Elie Saab gown she previously wore to Cannes in 2014. Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories.

'She showed me her inspiration and immediately decided that I was the guy for the job,' Martin explained, adding that the actress was fearless when it came to the transformation — and that it took seven hours to achieve the 'icy silver blonde' shade. 'If you meet Ms. Fonda in person, you'll witness her strong personality and her simplicity at the same time,' the pro told PEOPLE. 'She is someone who is very far from being nervous about a hair makeover… She's the kind of person who is not afraid of change.' Read the original article on People
