Part of that opportunity not coming to fruition for Lin stemmed from how Rideback would become untangled.
What happens to Rideback?
It will continue with co-CEOs Jonathan Eirich and Michael LoFaso, whove been promoted.
Lin launched Rideback in 2008 and produced movies that minted more than $6 billion worldwide.
Prior to being CEO of Rideback, he served as SVP Production at Warner Bros Pictures.
I cant wait for Dan to infuse Netflix with his innovation and talent.
Im excited to work with him to bring a diverse range of exceptional films to our global audience.
