Sony Boss Tony Vinciquerra Eyes Private Equity Return After “Boring” Exit From ‘The Last Of Us’ Studio — MIPCOM


Sony Pictures Entertainment chairman and CEO Tony Vinciquerra announced last month that he was stepping down from 'The Last Of Us' studio.

In a shock move, Vinciquerra announced last month that he was stepping down from his Sony CEO role in January 2025, but will stay on as non-executive chairman until December 2025. During an on-stage interview at MIPCOM in Cannes, Vinciquerra joked that his exit from The Last Of Us producer had been so “boring” that he was almost disappointed that podcasts were not picking over the drama of his decision. During the wide-ranging conversation with Variety co-editor-in-chief Cynthia Littleton, Vinciquerra reflected on the “severe impact” of the 2023 strikes, which he said were still being felt by U.S. studios.
