Lionsgate Merges Production and Acquisitions Divisions, Nathan Kahane to Lead Content Group
Charna Flam Lionsgate announced it has merged its production and acquisitions groups under a single content banner, and the new division will be led by Nathan Kahane, Motion Picture Group president. The new structure, announced Friday by Lionsgate Motion Picture Group chair Joe Drake, will optimize Lionsgate’s impact in developing, producing and acquiring a wider breadth of films for distribution. Joining Kahane, Lionsgate’s Jason Constantine has been named Motion Picture Group’s co-president, and will oversee creative strategy and report directly to Kahane. Constantine drove acquisitions of the “John Wick,” “Expendables” and “Saw” franchises.
