Malia Obama Is Pitching Scripts To Execs At Weinstein Company #BlackExcellence

That’s right, Malia Obama is working on making a name for herself, not off of her father & former president Barack Obama. Malia was chosen out of many applicants to be an intern at the Weinstein Company.

Malia is working as an production/developmental intern,  where she will/has been reading through scripts to help select which ones make it to the Weinstein executives. Interns can get involved in everything from film production to finance, depending on their interests.

The Weinstein Company gets scripts from top screenwriters and unknown talents alike. They have produced some of Hollywood’s most decorated films over in the last decade, like “The King’s Speech,” “The Artist,” “Shakespeare in Love,” “Silver Linings Playbook,” “Django Unchained,” and “Good Will Hunting.”

Malia‘s internship will run through the spring, and she’s reportedly getting paid for it. This is a great way for her to spend of gap year before attending Harvard in the fall of 2017. Malia has not yet conformed what she will be studying at Harvard, but it may just be something in the artswith this internship, and she recently attended the Sundance Film Festival on her own accord before this internship began.
