His other impending projects include the upcoming indie drama "Two Night Stand," which he's producing with Max Nichols and Beau Flynn. Casting is currently underway for that project.
Fleischer, who cut his teeth directing music videos and commercials, made his entry into television by helming segments for "Jimmy Kimmel Live," moving on to create and executive-produce the MTV series "Rob and Big" and "Fantasy Factory."
