Julian Senior, Former Warner Bros. Marketing Executive, Dies at 85


Julian Senior, a marketing executive for Warners and MGM who enjoyed a long working relationship with Stanley Kubrick, died Jan. 1.

Julian Senior, a veteran international marketing executive for Warners and MGM who enjoyed a long working relationship with Stanley Kubrick and many other notable filmmakers, died Jan. 1. Jan Harlan, executive producer on “Eyes Wide Shut,” said “What connected Julian and Stanley over almost 30 years was the ability of both men to distinguish between what is serious and what is not, to care endlessly about the serious and to make fun of what was pretentious.” Working on marketing campaigns for films including “Goodfellas,” “JFK” and the Lethal Weapon franchise, Senior also had close working relationships with filmmakers including Clint Eastwood, Michael Mann, David Puttnam, Neil Jordan, Richard Donner, Jerry Weintraub, Oliver Stone, Tim Burton, William Friedkin and Arnon Milchan.
