Terry Press Takes Over As Sole Head of CBS Films

Terry Press became the latest (sole) female head of a studio after a shake-up at CBS FIlms led to the ousting of her co-president Wolfgang Hammer. Press and Hammer were both hired in April 2012.

Press was previously the marketing chief for Dreamworks Films.

CBS Films released Inside Llewyn Davis and The To Do List last year and will debut the quirky romantic comedy What If on August 8 and the gay-themed mineworkers’ strike drama Pride on September 19. In 2015 on the docket is The Duff.
