Lionsgate Co-President of Production Bobby Cohen Is Leaving

Exec is transitioning into a production deal

Lionsgate

Bobby Cohen, Lionsgate’s co-president of production, is leaving his position, TheWrap has learned.

Peter Kang, the mini-major studio’s other co-president of production, will take over the combined role. Cohen will be moving into a production deal.

Kang was formerly Paramount’s executive vice president of production before joining Lionsgate in April. Before Paramount, Kang had the same position at Fox.

Cohen’s move is just the latest executive shake-up at Lionsgate’s film division.

Last month, Rob Friedman, the co-chair of Lionsgate’s Motion Picture Group, announced that he would be stepping down from his post and serving as a special advisor to the office of the studio’s CEO Jon Feltheimer.
