## Biography

Oren Koules is an American film producer and entrepreneur. He co-founded Evolution Entertainment with Mark Burg in 1998 and, through its subsidiary Twisted Pictures, produced the Saw horror film series from the original 2004 film through Saw X (2023).

Koules also served as executive producer on the CBS series Two and a Half Men (2003–2012). Earlier in his career he worked in production at Paramount Pictures and produced films including John Q (2002). A former professional ice hockey player, he later owned the Tampa Bay Lightning NHL team.
