Chief Executive, Lions Gate Entertainment Corp.
The $74 million domestic box office opening in March of last year for “John Wick: Chapter 4” is a welcome jolt for Lionsgate, which Feltheimer is steering through the digital-media revolution. Lionsgate Television Group has dozens of shows on TV and on order. A pressing concern for Hollywood’s largest independent film/TV company is the disposition of its Starz premium cable channels/video streamer business, which is being squeezed by better-funded global competitors and triggered a big corporate writeoff. At the helm since 2000, Feltheimer received a contract extension in August 2022 to August of next year.
