As part of the new structure, ViacomCBS’ global content leaders for brands such as Paramount Pictures and Showtime Networks now oversee their respective genres within the Paramount+ streaming service.
Similar restructurings around streaming have occurred across other media companies including Walt Disney (NYSE:DIS) Co and Comcast Corp (NASDAQ:CMCSA) -owned NBCUniversal.
ViacomCBS (NASDAQ:VIAC) announced a previous reorganization in October, ahead of the launch of Paramount+.
