Celebrity Direct Entertainment,
headquartered in the Midwest and on the Gulf Coast of Florida, has a long
history deep within the entertainment industry. Nearly 15 years ago, the
founder of CDE established a celebrity memorabilia venture, originally
specializing in sports autographs, and promoting and booking celebrities
of all types for a variety of autograph signings and personal appearances.
Through this company, which still exists, over 15,000 celebrity contacts
were made with stars from sports, film, music, and many other celebrity
fields... exclusive contacts which continue to this day. Also, during this
time CDE began publishing an entertainment related book and magazine, developing
a deep working relationship with many of the very artists that we currently
work with.

Carnival, he received his S.A.G. eligibility. Growing up watching
movies like “Raiders of the Lost Ark”, “Romancing the Stone”, “Star Wars”,

movies were what he craved. During the Summer of 2006, Philip was
cast in the pilot “Signals” as the sarcastic, all or nothing, Sean Lancey
who let people believe he died while trying to disarm a bomb so he can
have some kind of freedom. He also recieved the opportunity to portray
Indiana Jones in the trailer, “Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis”
who was one of Philip’s first inspirations. Philip is specializing in our
film / TV castings, and is happy to assist for any regional bookings...
