Exclusive: Departure of long-time Sony UK boss Peter Taylor prompts shake-up at studios.
The quiet retirement of long-time Sony Pictures UK MD Peter Taylor has prompted a shakeup at the top of two Hollywood studios in the UK.
Industry veteran Taylor has been replaced as MD by former Paramount Pictures UK MD Ian George.
In turn, Paramount marketing director John Fletcher has been appointed Paramount UK MD following George’s departure.
Taylor had steered Sony’s UK office for more than a decade, joining in 2006 after a two-year stint as MD of Warner Bros UK.
The studio veteran had previously worked at Columbia (and then Sony) in various roles between 1982-2004.
During his tenure as MD he oversaw huge results for the Bond franchise, including the UK’s second and third-biggest releases ever in the shape of Skyfall, which took more than £100m in 2012, and Spectre, which made £94m in 2015.
He also co-ordinated big local successes for the...

In its inaugural year, this exciting film extravaganza, which hopes to become the Glastonbury of film, will be opened by Indiana Jones and James Bond and closed by Dr Who; or at least the actors who play them! Jon Favreau’s blending of science fiction and the old West Cowboys & Aliens will kick start the event with stars Daniel Craig and Harrison Ford to attend for the world premiere, while the remake of classic 80’s horror Fright Night 3D, starring Colin Farrell and David Tennant, has been picked as the movie to close the event.
And these are just a few of the stars to attend the 3 day event taking place on the weekend of the 12th of August at the O2, which is quickly becoming as synonymous with film as it is with music, having hosted last year’s Chronicles of Narnia and more recently the Justin Bieber Never Say Never documentary premieres.
