WarnerMedia Entertainment Hires for Unscripted

WarnerMedia Entertainment has named FOX alum Corie Henson as executive VP, head of unscripted programming for TBS, TNT and truTV.

Henson will lead and oversee unscripted creative development and production for all three cable brands, reporting to Brett Weitz, general manager of TBS, TNT and truTV. Henson joins WarnerMedia Entertainment from FOX Broadcasting Company, where she served as executive VP of alternative entertainment and oversaw all development and current franchises, including The Masked Singer and MasterChef. Henson also previously served as executive VP of unscripted television at Electus and VP of alternative series for ABC Entertainment.

“Corie has an incredible reputation for bringing in top tier talent and building undeniable shows that resonate with broad audiences, and she also has a deep appreciation for our networks,” said Weitz. “Her understanding for how best to create unscripted series will capture the distinct spirit of each of our brands and help shape a robust unscripted strategy.”

“With three premiere networks and a highly anticipated streaming service down the hall, there is a home for any format, any genre and any character,” said Henson. “Not only can you do anything here, we’re going to get out of your way and let you do it.”
