Inside the great Netflix shakeup

It’s official: Bela Bajaria and Dan Lin are out at Netflix, and Peter Rice is in as the streamer’s new chief content officer. Kim Masters and Matt Belloni break down the shakeup, how Rice landed the top job, and who he might recruit to oversee Netflix’s future projects.

 

Plus, we’re sharing some unheard moments from Masters’ recent conversations. Tiger King filmmaker Eric Goode explains how his years running New York nightclubs, restaurants, and hotels prepared him for a documentary career involving venomous snakes and armed exotic animal traffickers. And veteran marketing executive Gerry Rich looks back at working with the Broccoli family to revive James Bond with GoldenEye, along with his experiences working for a notorious Hollywood producer who once threatened to break Kim’s kneecaps.
