In a separate move that signals further leadership restructuring, Paramount Skydance has appointed Dane Glasgow as Chief Product Officer, according to Variety. Glasgow, a seasoned technology executive and former Vice President at Meta, will officially assume the role on September 29 and report directly to David Ellison, Chairman and CEO of Paramount Skydance.
Glasgow will work closely with Cindy Holland, the former Netflix executive now leading Paramount’s Direct-to-Consumer division. Together, they will focus on aligning the company’s platforms, products, and audience engagement strategies.
At Meta, Glasgow led product teams across Facebook Feed, Stories, Reels, Groups, Marketplace, Gaming, Ads, and more—serving over 3 billion monthly active users globally.
These changes come in the wake of Skydance Media’s acquisition of Paramount Global, marking a new chapter for the studio’s leadership and strategic direction.
