Cathy Yan Booking Agency Profile
After graduating, Yan worked as a journalist and editor for various publications, including The Wall Street Journal and The New York Times, before transitioning to film. She wrote and directed her first feature film, "Dead Pigs," which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in 2018 and won the Special Jury Prize for Ensemble Acting. The film explores the lives of characters affected by a mysterious wave of pig deaths in Shanghai and has been praised for its social commentary on contemporary China.
In 2020, Yan directed "Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn)," a superhero film based on the DC Comics characters. The film features an ensemble cast led by Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn and has been noted for its feminist themes and diverse representation. Yan was the first Asian woman to direct a superhero film and received critical acclaim for her direction and vision.
Yan is also an advocate for diversity and representation in the film industry, and has spoken out about the importance of telling stories from underrepresented perspectives. In addition to her filmmaking work, Yan has also directed commercials and music videos, including a campaign for Adidas featuring Chinese Olympic athletes.
With her unique perspective and commitment to telling diverse stories, Cathy Yan has established herself as a talented filmmaker and a voice for underrepresented communities in the entertainment industry..

CTI can give you the accurate Cathy Yan booking price once we submit your event details to their camp. "How much does it cost to book Cathy Yan for an event?" is a frequent question we get. The final Cathy Yan booking price is contingent on many variables and the booking fee we may show is based on a range derived from our past experience with what will Cathy Yan charge for an event. An example fee to book Cathy Yan is in the starting range of $75,000-$149,999. However, any recent popularity change would cause a price fluctuation well beyond this example. Also, their speaking fee might be different than the fee shown for the cost to perform or to just appear. Popularity, career stage, along with current demand will cause fluctuations in their speaking price as well. The final booking price may be more than what is shown, but you should at least have a budget within that range for them to consider an appearance, performance or speaking engagement.
CTI negotiates on behalf of professional event planners and talent buyers for paid appearances! We cannot give out direct contact information of the Cathy Yan agent or help distribute fan mail, personal messages, gifts, requests for free appearances, or donations of time. The Cathy Yan manager and agent will only work with us if we present them with funded offers for their client to work your event.
There is low probability to book Cathy Yan for a party with anything substantially less than the published booking cost price range. We will negotiate with the Cathy Yan agent on your behalf if your funding is in place. By not having funding ready then it will more difficult to book Cathy Yan, because they get many offers to work events that are at or above asking price. It is also important to consider the travel costs when researching the Cathy Yan booking fee, as additional expenses like this, as well as an entourage of staff and equipment, are not necessarily built-in to the booking fee range shown. If your budget does not factor that in, then there is no benefit for them to want to be hired. We do not personally speak for Cathy Yan, but in our experience in booking talent for over 25 years, this is generally the outcome of inadequate funding.
