Fox Television Studios Shutters U.K. Production Arm

LOS ANGELES/LONDON, June 11: Fox Television Studios is
closing down its British production studio, FtvS-UK, as part of a review of its
international operations initiated by new president Emiliano Calemzuk.

Calemzuk took over the top job at Fox Television Studios
last month after several years running Fox Channels Italy, following stints at
Fox Latin America Channels and Fox Kids Latin America. In his new post, he
reports directly to News Corp.’s president and COO, Peter Chernin.

Fox Television Studios said in a statement that it will
“continue to develop and produce high-quality scripted and alternative
programming for the U.S. and international marketplaces through production and
co-production with broadcasters around the world.”
