Addition to DEADLIST:

STEVE BING
Writer/Producer, Liz Hurley’s Ex ...
DEAD AT 55 FROM SUICIDE

EXCERPT:

Steve Bing — best known for writing “Kangaroo Jack” and investing hugely in the Tom Hanks’ film, “The Polar Express” — has died ... TMZ has learned.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... the famed writer/producer died by suicide Monday after jumping from the 27th floor of a luxury apartment building in L.A.’s Century City neighborhood. Bing lived in the building, and sources connected to him tell us he’d been depressed about lack of human contact during quarantine. We don’t know if that’s behind the suicide.

Bing — who founded Shangri-La Entertainment — reportedly dropped out of Stanford his junior year after inheriting around $600 million from his grandfather, who was a real estate developer. After dropping out, Bing pursued a career in Hollywood ... and his first big-budget hit came as executive producer of the Sylvester Stallone film, “Get Carter,” in 2000.

He went on to write “Kangaroo Jack” in 2003 ... and later invested nearly $100 million in ‘Polar Express.’ That was reportedly nearly half the production cost, and it went on to gross nearly $300 million globally at the box office.

Bing also produced “Hotel Noir” in 2012. That same year, Bing committed to Bill Gates and Warren Buffett’s “Giving Pledge” to give away the majority of his wealth over his lifetime. Bing donated to a lot of progressive issues.

Bing is survived by his 2 children — Damian Hurley from his relationship with Elizabeth Hurley and daughter Kira Bonder, who he had with former pro tennis player Lisa Bonder.

Bing was 55.

more about Bing. See link above.

In 2009, when Bill Clinton flew to North Korea to negotiate for the release of two American journalists, Euna Lee and Laura Ling, it was Bing who picked up the tab. Those names should sound familiar.

You may remember Ling and Lee because they popped up in 2015 in John Podesta’s emails, pictured eating a slice with a small girl.


The Clinton/journalist story always struck me as very odd. Perhaps there is MUCH more to this story than has been reported. Is there a human trafficking tie-in? What’s the deal with the “journalists”? Was it all a cover story for BJ to visit NK?

Steve Bing

He was particularly close to Clinton, having given at least $10 million to his foundation.

On Tuesday, former President Bill Clinton issued a statement, saying, “I loved Steve Bing very much. He had a big heart, and he was willing to do anything he could for the people and causes he believed in. I will miss him and his enthusiasm more than I can say, and I hope he’s finally found peace.”
