’s champion’s league coup in Germany, HBO’s new Polish original “The Thaw,” new London factual production company Big Little Fish and Starzplay’s Middle Eastern partnership with Image Nation Abu Dhabi.The glass ceiling has suddenly risen a notch in Europe. This week, France’s Canal Plus Group announced that Anna Marsh will take over from Didier Lupfer as the CEO of Studiocanal, which CPG owns 100%..
That’s no ordinary job. A production-distribution-sales combo, Studiocanal runs theatrical direct distribution operations for its films in the U.K., France, Germany and Australia/New Zealand, making it is Europe’s biggest non-studio theatrical distributor. Under Marsh, its film international sales team for other territories has become one of only four or five operations in the world that regularly sells out worldwide on top titles at the world’s biggest markets.
In TV, it has bought up or taken stakes in companies making the running in key territories in Europe: Tandem in Germany, RED Production Company, SunnyMarch TV and Urban Myth in the U.K., Denmark’ SAM, Spain’s Bambu Producciones. Marsh’s appointment means that women sit now in multiple key positions at Studiocanal: Françoise Guyonnet at Studiocanal TV, Rola Bauer at Tandem, Nicola Shindler at RED, and Anne Cherel heading up international sales on first-run movies. Marsh’s new job has nothing to do with gender quotas. That said, it’s a sign of the times that her appointment raises more questions about where she would like to take Studiocanal, which still has immense potential in TV, than of herr being a woman.
