Mooh Mooh & Toro
Ivan Mooh Mooh and Joshua Toro are an odd couple among New Hollywood. ⁂ A Cameroonian who mastered the art of dodging household dishware before English grammar, Mooh Mooh embraced the Marine Corps, its live-fire exercises meditative by comparison. Toro collected Ivy League medals while explaining “creative multi-hyphenate” to bewildered relatives every Thanksgiving. ⁂ They collided at USC—Mooh Mooh a George Lucas Scholar in John Wells whose scripts were regular finalists at Austin, Atlanta, and Screencraft; Toro a Stark producer with training at Sundance, A24, Warner Bros. Discovery, and CAA. ⁂ Mooh Mooh was convinced Toro, whose coffee calendar allegedly extended into 2030, was Hollywood’s archetypal cold-blooded producer. Fortunately, a red-hot nosebleed proved otherwise and catalyzed a prolific writing partnership. ⁂ Mooh Mooh infuses characters with suspiciously divine humanity, while Toro slices through narrative with surgical precision, excising insidious structural flaws. Genre-agnostics with a soft spot for action-adventure, they write airtight stories that transcend borders and insist “commercially viable” and “artistically respectable” are friends, not foes.
