UJP CEO JoJo Ryder is now in production on a brand new documentary called “The Renaissance Man”. The project centers on a man named Tony DeNiro who has been involved with the entertainment industry for many years, and became a confidant to many celebrities from the height of their careers, to the lowest point in their careers. “The Renaissance Man” is a documentary that takes viewers on a journey from the point-of-view of these celebrities, and their encounters with Tony DeNiro. The project is being executive produced by JoJo Ryder under the banner of his company UJP, with additional Jeffery Williams and Lindsay Butler.
