Former Sony executive David Kaminow has joined Annapurna Pictures as its new president of marketing just weeks after leaving his former company.
Founded by Megan Ellison, Annapurna Pictures declares itself a film production and finance company founded with the goal of creating sophisticated, high-quality films that might otherwise be deemed risky by contemporary Hollywood studios. The company boasts that many consider it to be a one-stop shop for filmmakers and says that it has provided the industry with “a critical boost of mature, adult dramas in recent years.”
