HBO's Casey Bloys to Oversee Streaming for the Combined Paramount-Warner Bros.
Casey Bloys, the head of HBO, will control the streaming business of the combined Paramount-Warner Bros., according to Variety. Before the decision, people across the entertainment business had discussed whether the role would go to Bloys or to Paramount's Cindy Holland. Variety reports that Bloys knew he held the stronger position as the choice was being made. The appointment puts the streaming operations of two studios under one executive, and the entertainment industry in Los Angeles follows that business closely.
