Warner Bros. Executives to Assume Leadership of Turner Classic Movies

Turner Classic Movies will rely on Warner Bros. film chiefs Mike De Luca and Pam Abdy for library curation and editorial vision.
De Luca and Abdy will advise, but a senior executive in charge of operations is expected to be named in the future.
The exit of TCM head Pola Changnon and other key employees caused an outcry from the film community, including top directors Steven Spielberg, Martin Scorsese, and Paul Thomas Anderson.
De Luca and Abdy have been mining the Warner library for a series of salons hosted on the lot, inviting top filmmakers to select WB classics and screen them for employees.
The aim is to ensure that TCM's programming is untouched and protected.
