Director Rinsch Sentenced for Netflix Fraud | Phoenix News

Director Carl Rinsch just got sentenced to over two years in prison for stealing $11 million from Netflix meant for his sci-fi series “White Horse,” instead spending it on Ferraris, designer gear, and luxury watches. Known for directing “47 Ronin” with Keanu Reeves, Rinsch’s lavish spending shocked fans — and Reeves himself penned a letter to the court pleading for leniency. Convicted in December 2025 on wire fraud charges, Rinsch’s betrayal of trust in Hollywood’s high-stakes world has landed him behind bars, exposing how fragile confidence can be when money and morality collide.
