"[T]he producer is the ultimate authority on a set. He’s in charge of everything, even above the director."

This is not correct, including for the reasons that (1) there are multiple producers on most films, and (2) the relative authority of the director(s) and the various producers will vary from film to film. One might as well write, "Sonny Bunch is an editor at the Bulwark, and therefore has ultimate authority over everything in the publication."
