Mattel CEO Ynon Kreiz May Join David Ellison at Paramount-Warner Bros.

Mattel CEO Ynon Kreiz may be joining David Ellison's Paramount-Warner Bros. After Mattel announced that Kreiz would be leaving for another role at a public company, speculation spread that he could be returning to the entertainment business. However, he cannot be appointed to any position at the combined company until judge Martínez-Olguín approves of its settlement with state attorneys general and the deal officially closes. Kreiz, who previously served as the president of Maker Studios and Endemol, is known for pushing Mattel into entertainment with box office hits like Barbie. His addition to the combined companies would give the combined firm a veteran operational hand to work alongside Ellison, whose background is in the creative side of the business.
