"Shake-Ups in Hollywood: NBCUniversal's New Chief Content Officer Overhauls Executive Ranks"
Originally Published 2 years ago — by Hollywood Reporter
Comcast's reorganization of NBCUniversal reflects the current trend in the entertainment industry, with many companies appointing a chief content officer to oversee all aspects of their entertainment portfolio. Donna Langley has been named chairman of the NBCUniversal studio group and chief content officer, giving her broad control over the company's film, TV, and streaming series content. This move aligns with the blurring lines between film and TV, as well as the increasing demand for a unified content strategy. While the role of chief content officer offers creative freedom, it also comes with the challenge of delivering successful series and movies in a rapidly evolving media landscape.
