Brad Weston is departing as president and CEO of New Regency after five years on the job, a decision the executive was said to have made jointly with the company’s founder, Arnon Milchan.
New Regency had a winning creative run during Weston’s tenure, taking best picture Oscars for “12 Years A Slave” and “Birdman” and multiple awards for last year’s “The Revenant.”
The company said it would be in strong hands going forward, led by Milchan’s son, Yariv, and by chief operating officer Jonathan Fischer and president of production Pam Abdy. A new management structure has not been set.
“I appreciate Brad’s contribution to New Regency over the last four and half years and I wish him absolutely nothing but the best going forward,” Milchan said in a statement. “I am very committed to New Regency’s growth and will continue to invest in its future.
