Sony Pictures names TriStar's Rothman to top job

Feb. 24, 2015 3:49 PM ETSony Group Corporation (SONY) StockSONYBy: Jason Aycock, SA News Editor
  • Sony Pictures Entertainment (SNE +2.8%) has chosen Tom Rothman to chair its Motion Picture Group and replace Amy Pascal, who left her post under a cyberattack cloud.
  • He'll report to Michael Lynton, who has recommitted as CEO of Sony Entertainment.
  • Rothman -- whose strength is seen as fiscal responsibility -- prevailed over competitors including Mike DeLuca, Jeff Robinov, Sony Pictures Television chief Steve Mosko and Columbia Pictures chief Doug Belgrad.
  • While Rothman was most recently at TriStar, he spent more than a decade as co-chief of Twentieth Century Fox films before a surprise firing two years ago.
  • Unlike Pascal, Rothman won't oversee the TV business; that will be the purview of Mosko, who will report directly to Lynton.
  • Previously: Pascal out as Sony motion picture chief; shares up (Feb. 05 2015)
