Nicole Clemens has been named president of Paramount Television, following the sudden ousting of Amy Powell in July, Paramount Pictures announced Wednesday.
She will report to Jim Gianopulos, chairman and CEO of Paramount Pictures
“Nicole brings invaluable institutional experience and knowledge of all aspects of television from development to production to talent representation to programming,” said Gianopulos. “Her excellent creative instincts, deep relationships throughout the industry and breadth of experience make her the ideal candidate for this role. We look forward to many years of great successes from her and the incredible Paramount Television team.”
Powell was fired by Paramount in July, after being accused of, and denying, making insensitive and inappropriate comments.
