Fremantle’s Angela Neillis Exiting After More Than A Decade Running Unscripted Sales


Fremantle's Angela Neillis is exiting after selling the likes of 'Got Talent' and 'X Factor' as unscripted sales boss for more than a decade.

Her departure follows a Fremantle review of the global docs and non-scripted businesses, we are told, and the two will be brought closer together under Jens Richter, the CEO of Commercial and International. Having joined from then-Sky Vision in late 2013, she oversaw juggernauts such as X Factor and Britain’s Got Talent, along with doc series including Planet Sex with Cara Delevingne and Expedition with Steve Backshall. Yesterday, it said it would be combining its U.S. and European scripted operations under Christian Vesper, with Dante Di Loreto shifting to a producer deal.
