Netflix Content Chief: Our Projects ‘Spook’ Old Studios

Los Angeles Times: Netflix chief content officer Ted Sarandos has a vision for the future of movies — and not surprisingly, streaming is at the heart of it. “The movies that Bong Joon-ho is making for us in Korea right now or that Angelina Jolie is directing in Cambodia or that Brad Pitt just did, “War Machine” … these are really ambitious films that spook studios, that in the old model would just be very difficult to make. The studios gave up on a lot of films that viewers did not. We’re looking to fill that gap.”
