Personal
Hastings lives in the San Francisco Bay Area, is married, and has two children.
He was featured in a front-page article in USA Today in 1995, posing on his Porsche. Nowadays he eschews flamboyance and says if he ever appeared on the front page of USA Today again it will "not on the hood of a Porsche, but I would with a bunch of movies."
One of Hastings' favorite movies is Gloomy Sunday. "It is about a love triangle in Budapest with great sadness and redemption. Thankfully, there are no parallels to Netflix," says Hastings.
In 2012 Hastings was photographed by world-renowned photographer Kevin Abosch for his project FACES:TECH.
