David Ellison announced the senior executives that will help him run the combined Paramount-Warner Bros. Discovery when the deal closes Tuesday.
“Together, Paramount and Warner Bros. will form a creative-first home with the scale, imagination and technology to define entertainment for a generation,” Ellison said. “The leaders joining me have built some of the most beloved franchises and businesses in the industry, and they share a deep respect for the creative process and a belief that great stories have the power to entertain, unite and inspire audiences around the world.
As previously announced, Ellison will be chairman and CEO, with former Mattel chief Ynon Keiz joining him as co-CEO.
