Andrew A. Kosove is an American film producer who was nominated for an Academy Award for the film The Blind Side. Alongside his producing partner, Broderick Johnson, he is the co-founder and co-CEO of Alcon Entertainment, a Los Angeles-based wholly independent production company. In December 2015, the Federal Bureau of Investigation discovered that Kosove was linked to the leak of Quentin Tarantino's The Hateful Eight.
Kosove graduated from Princeton University in 1992. He became friends with Broderick Johnson in college.
Kosove and Johnson moved to Los Angeles, California, where they started a film production company with financial capital from Frederick W. Smith, the founder and chairman of FedEx. The company became known as Alcon Entertainment. Their first feature film, Lost & Found, was a failure at the box office. However, their second film, My Dog Skip, "was the 75th-highest-grossing film of 2000—and Alcon made a tidy profit of roughly $20 million." Later, they produced P.S. I Love You, Dude, Where's My Car?, The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, The Book of Eli, etc.
