Planet Hollywood, Times Square, New York City
Planet Hollywood International, Inc. is a theme restaurant inspired by the popular portrayal of Hollywood.
It was launched in New York on October 22, 1991, with the backing of Hollywood stars Sylvester Stallone, Bruce Willis, Demi Moore, and Arnold Schwarzenegger. Further celebrity endorsement included actress Whoopi Goldberg, actor Don Johnson and his then-wife Melanie Griffith, the late director John Hughes, comedian Roseanne Barr, and actors Tom Arnold, Wesley Snipes, and Danny Glover.
Planet Hollywood was the idea of Bryan Kestner, a former actor who had some small parts in movies produced by Taft-Barish. Kestner approached his boss, Keith Barish, with the idea of a theme restaurant modeled after Hard Rock Cafe, which would instead feature movie memorabilia. Barish was a financier, real estate developer and film producer. Kestner wanted to call the restaurant "Cafe Hollyrock"; instead, Barish and Robert Earl, former President and CEO of Hard Rock Cafe, came up with the name "Planet Hollywood."
