Netflix has ousted film boss Dan Lin just days after axing about 1,000 staff and parting ways with its chief content officer, in a brutal reshuffle at the streamer that one senior insider summed up as 'everyone is collateral damage'.
Co-chief executive Ted Sarandos is reported to have telephoned Lin in Los Angeles on Friday to tell him his tenure as head of Netflix's film division was over. No permanent successor has been named, and former Disney and Fox executive Peter Rice will oversee the department on an interim basis when he starts later this month.
