NY Post Announces Retirements at Warner Bros
The Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice fiasco, which has already led to a major reshuffle at Warner Bros., could cost several senior studio executives the post. According to the NY Post, citing its sources, the resignation of the head of the production department, Greg Silverman, and Sue Kroll, president of the international marketing and distribution department, are almost a foregone conclusion. Notably, rumors many experts predicted Silverman's resignation at the end of 2015 after a series of high-profile movie failures of the Warner Bros. studio, however, unexpectedly for the industry, he managed to renew his contract in early 2016. It is possible that the unsatisfactory distribution of the movie "Batman v Supremen" was the "last straw" that overflowed the cup of patience of the company's shareholders. Official representatives of the studio have not yet commented on this information, so it should be treated with a certain degree of distrust. Recall that the movie "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" was crushed by critics and received one of the lowest ratings among the screen adaptations of popular comics. The global box office grossed $ 870 million, which theoretically allowed the project to pay off, but did not bring significant profits to the creators.
