Dan Scharf — the VP and global head of business affairs at Amazon Studios — will now oversee production, studio operations, casting, and studios music. Jennifer Salke, head of Amazon Studios, made the internal announcement Wednesday.
This change is effective immediately. Scharf will continue to report to Salke. He is taking on areas that were previously under Albert Cheng in his role as Amazon Studios COO. Cheng was recently promoted to VP, Prime Video U.S.
Since joining Amazon Studios in 2013, Scharf has spearheaded negotiations for Amazon Studios’ biggest deals, including Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, The Boys, Coming 2 America, and The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power.
