About Jack Rousseau

I’ve always been drawn to entertainment. Growing up, I spent countless hours playing video games and watching movies and TV shows, all of which sparked my fascination with how technology and storytelling shape the way people experience entertainment. Before launching Rex, I spent 3 years at PlayerMint, a play-to-earn video game company. As Chief Relations Officer I led gaming partnerships, investor relations, capital strategy, and helped raise more than 3M in funding.As a lifelong cinephile, I became frustrated with how difficult it had become to decide what to watch in a world of endless streaming options. That irritation became a problem I was compelled to solve. The result is Rex, a platform built to cut through fragmentation and help viewers find the right movie or show in seconds.
