HOLLYWOOD, CA, UNITED STATES, June 16, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Bobacat Productions, a newly launched Hollywood-based film and television development company, today announced its official launch alongside its debut project, Millennial Misery Stories, a true-story limited series and feature film adaptation currently in development.
Founded by entrepreneur and creator Evan Pickens, Bobacat Productions is built around true-story source material drawn from Pickens’ nearly two decades navigating the natural foods, nutraceuticals, and CPG industries across Southern California. The company’s flagship project, Millennial Misery Stories, chronicles one entrepreneur’s relentless journey through the cutthroat world of California entrepreneurship, business failures, and unlikely resilience.
About the Project
Millennial Misery Stories is described as a darkly comedic exploration of three decades of California boom-and-bust excess. The project draws on real events and experiences from the founder’s entrepreneurial career, exploring themes of ambition, failure, perseverance, and the particular character of California’s business culture across multiple economic cycles.
The project is being developed simultaneously as both a limited series and feature film, with the two formats allowing for different aspects of the story to be explored in depth and condensed form respectively.
Bobacat Productions officially launches on July 1, 2026, marking the beginning of a development journey that will bring this distinctive California story to screen audiences.
