Variety: Warner Bros EVP for Physical Production Kevin Trehy Exits After Two Decades

Story from Variety:

Warner Bros. Pictures’ longterm head of physical production Kevin Trehy has exited the company after 21 years, Variety has exclusively learned.

The U.K. production team is being led by Jay Rosenwink and Samar Pollitt who have both been with the studio for many years.

Trehy, who was based at Warner’s Leavesden Studio just outside London, joined the company as a line producer in 2003 before working his way up to EVP for physical production. He has worked across dozens of the studio’s blockbusters including “Wonder Woman 1984,” the Harry Potter film series and Christopher Nolan’s Batman trilogy.

He has also been a keen supporter of production skills training and sits on the board of industry body ScreenSkills.

Warner Bros. Discovery announced last year that DC Studios’ primary production hub would move to Leavesden, which is set to expand capacity by 50%. Warner Bros. Discovery is planning to break ground this year with the project expected to be completed by 2027. DC Studios co-chairmen and CEOs James Gunn and Peter Safran were planning to consult with the Leavesden expansion team to “ensure that their ideas are incorporated” into the new facilities.

Among the productions shot at Leavesden over the past few years were “Barbie,” which was said to have given the U.K. economy a $100 million boost, and “Wonka.”

Leavesden is also home to the Harry Potter Studio Tour, which gives fans a chance to step onto some of the sets used in the movies.
