MGM has promoted Mark Burnett to chairman of its Worldwide Television Group in a new deal that will keep the prolific reality TV producer at the studio through 2022.
“In the past four years at MGM we have renewed all our television franchises and have added a lot of new hits,” Burnett said. “This is the most fun I have had in my career and I know we will continue to build on these successes. I believe so strongly in the future of MGM and the team that surrounds me and it was important for me to extend my involvement well into the future.”
