Warner Bros. Television and its subsidiary Warner Horizon Scripted TV will merge to form the newly created Warner Bros. TV Scripted Division. The Telepictures arm of the company is being folded into the larger company, with exec Donna Reider Linsk's position eventually eliminated as part of the restructuring. Telepictures is the division behindWarner Bros.
Layoffs in areas with redundancies — including business affairs and finance — are expected to come as part of the consolidation in both the scripted and unscripted units. The news arrives hours after WarnerMedia started laying off an estimated 600 employees as part of a corporate restructuring that consolidates its streaming and linear cable network oversight under HBO programming president Casey Bloys.
Leigh London Redman, who formerly served as exec vp scripted at Warner Horizon, has replaced White and will lead drama development. Adrienne Turner will continue to run comedy development. Odetta Watkins and Maddy Horne will continue to manage scripted series produced by the studio. Adam Glick, Sue Palladino and Jody Zucker will remain in their respective roles overseeing business affairs, production and legal affairs, respectively.
