filed to run for mayor of Los Angeles on Friday afternoon, ending months of speculation and shaking up the crowded race to succeed Eric Garcetti.
Jay Sures, co-president of UTA, is hosting the first entertainment industry event in support of Caruso’s candidacy at his home on Feb. 23. Other Caruso supporters in the industry include CAA co-chairman Bryan Lourd, who is a longtime friend, and Dana Walden, Disney’s chairman of television entertainment.
Caruso has been making preparations to run for several months, lining up a full team of political consultants and strategists, and announcing last month that he had re-registered as a Democrat. He faced a Saturday deadline to file his intention to run in the June 7 primary, and is expected to kick off his campaign in earnest early next week.
Caruso has nearly run for mayor twice before. In late 2011, he switched his party affiliation from Republican to independent, in what was seen as a step toward running in 2013. He spent many months considering the idea, and his political consultants went so far as to inquire about TV ad rates before he ultimately pulled the plug.
