#Executive decision netflix update
We will of course update with its response if and when we get it. Netflix did not respond to request for comment from Deadline on this latest lawsuit. Facing similar legal action from ViacomCBS over similar executive snatching, Netflix recently sought to appeal the Fox decision. Seeking injunctive relief and widespread damages, today’s lawsuit from deep-pocketed Activision comes almost a year after Netflix came up short in its long court battle with now Disney-owned Fox over poaching two of the latter’s team back in 2016. Even more so, the debt-laden company is plugging in further to the lucrative video game market with the likes of Stranger Things 3: The Game.
Obviously, there have been a number of corner-office exits at Netflix in the past few months, but Neumann is still there overseeing the numbers. Pink-slipped for cause (aka his dalliance with the streamer) in late 2018 after just over a year and a half as Activision’s CFO and with more than two years left on his contract, Neumann was named Netflix’s CFO in January 2019. Perhaps to make matters more damning in this case, at least in the plaintiff’s POV, Netflix pulled former Disney exec Neumann over to their side as Activision was “negotiating with Netflix over a commercial partnership to distribute Activision’s linear media content,” according to the 13-page document. Now, if any of this jury-trial seeking move sounds familiar, that’s because you have heard it before. Arnold Schwarzenegger Celebrates Becoming U.S.
