Things are not going to be the same at Warner Bros., now that they have a new chair and CEO, Ann Sarnoff. When she met the company today she was posed the age-old question of Superman or Batman. Her answer seemed to surprise everyone. She opted for Wonder Woman instead of either heroes.

 

Sarnoff’s other talks included the focus on building a new chapter for the company after a rocky beginning to 2019. She’s prizing taking risks and exploring new avenues. That makes it pretty clear why she would roll with the superhero who has helped lead the DC Extended Universe out of its own rocky start. 

WB was looking for fresh members

Warner Bros. had been looking for a new talent to lead them into the streaming marketplace with their launch of a service to rival Netflix, Hulu, Disney+ and others. Sarnoff’s strong digital background sealed the deal for her along with a track record in production at BBC Studios Americas. WarnerMedia CEO John Stankey was very happy with her selection in an earlier statement.
