Netflix Film Executive Niija Kuykendall to Exit by Year's End
Netflix's VP of Film, Niija Kuykendall, will leave the company at the end of the year amid a reorganization of the company's executive structure. Jason Young has been promoted to VP Film, taking over the YA film oversight, while faith-based and holiday films will move to the drama/thrillers pod. Kuykendall's departure is part of a broader realignment under Dan Lin's leadership, following other recent executive exits and layoffs at Netflix.
