Jimmy Fallon Cancels Pasta Sauce Venture With Tommy Mottola After Epstein File Disclosures

New DOJ files name Mottola in roughly 600 Epstein-related records.

Overview

  • Two people familiar with the project told The Hollywood Reporter the early-stage venture is not moving forward after Page Six had described it as paused.
  • The Justice Department released roughly 300GB of Epstein-related materials after congressional action compelled additional disclosures.
  • Reports say Mottola appears in about 600 documents, including references to travel logistics, a 2014 helicopter request, help seeking a private investigator, and a 2017 message to “shut up and lay low.”
  • The files also reflect dozens of calls and visits tied to Epstein’s properties in Manhattan and Paris, with most activity occurring between 2006 and 2008.
  • Representatives for Fallon and Mottola declined on-the-record comment to THR, as industry repercussions continue, including Casey Wasserman’s planned agency sale after related emails surfaced and talent departures such as Chappell Roan’s.
