Warner Bros. Ceo Stepping Down Following Scandal

Kevin Tsujihara has resigned as chairman and CEO of Warner Bros. following a scandal involving actress Charlotte Kirk, whom he acknowledged having had an extramarital relationship with. He had been under an internal investigation over allegations that he used his influence as boss to attain Kirk roles in studio projects, notably 2016's How to Be Single and 2018's Ocean's 8. Tsujihara, who was the first Hollywood studio boss of Asian descent, had run Warners since 2013 and had worked for the company for over two decades. “It is in the best interest of WarnerMedia, Warner Bros., our employees and our partners for Kevin to step down as Chairman and CEO of Warner Bros.,” said WarnerMedia CEO John Stankey on Monday (via THR).
