Warner Bros. Entertainment Announces New Leadership for Warner Bros. Pictures Group Burbank, CA Warner Bros. Entertainment today announced a new leadership team to run Warner Bros. Pictures Group, capitalizing on the proven strengths of a number of longtime Studio executives. Sue Kroll will now serve as President, Worldwide Marketing and International Distribution, Warner Bros. Pictures; Greg Silverman will now serve as President, Creative Development and Worldwide Production, Warner Bros. Pictures; and Toby Emmerich will continue as President and COO, New Line Cinema, while adding responsibility for Warner Bros. Theatre Ventures. The announcement was made today by Kevin Tsujihara, CEO, Warner Bros., to whom all three executives will report.
Working closely with the management team, Dan Fellman, whose contract has been extended, will continue in his role as President, Domestic Distribution, reporting directly to Tsujihara. Veronika Kwan Vandenberg will continue as President, International Distribution, and ultimately assume responsibility for worldwide distribution, taking on the domestic distribution function upon the planned retirement of Fellman. Kwan Vandenberg will report to Kroll who, in addition to her marketing and distribution responsibilities, will continue to be involved in all aspects of Warner Bros. Pictures and New Line Cinemas releases.
Warner Bros. is the worlds preeminent motion picture studio with one of the most talented executive benches in the industry, said Tsujihara. Collectively, this team has more than 100 years at the company and broad experience across the film business, which will ensure that Warner Bros. Pictures continues as a respected leader in production, marketing and global distribution. I have every confidence that we will continue to deliver the industrys most compelling, popular and successful movies.
This marks an exciting new chapter in the storied history of Warner Bros. Pictures, said Barry Meyer, Chairman, Warner Bros. We are in the midst of another terrific year, and our film division will continue to thrive well into the future under this realigned organization.
Kroll was named President, Worldwide Marketing, Warner Bros. Pictures in January 2008 and has led enormously successful campaigns for a broad range of motion pictures, including most recently Man of Steel, The Great Gatsby and last years Academy Award Best Picture winner, Argo. Other prominent campaigns include the billion-dollar blockbusters The Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Rises, as well as Inception and the final installments of the Harry Potter series.
Silverman has been President, Production, Warner Bros. Pictures since April 2011 and played a key role in recent box-office successes, including The Great Gatsby, directed by Baz Luhrmann, Argo from director Ben Affleck and The Dark Knight Rises, directed by Christopher Nolan. As a creative executive, Silverman also shepherded the commercially successful and critically acclaimed 300, The Dark Knight, The Hangover and the global phenomenon Inception, among other films. As President and COO of New Line Cinema since March 2008, and President of Production for seven years prior to that, Emmerich has overseen such diverse features as the Academy Award-winning blockbuster The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey and 2005s highest-grossing comedy, Wedding Crashers, as well as Hes Just Not That Into You, Horrible Bosses, the Journey franchise and the Final Destination films.
