Hamish Moseley Departs Netflix as EMEA Director of Distribution
Hamish Moseley has left his role as director of distribution EMEA at Netflix, effective earlier this month. The respected distribution executive joined Netflix in early 2022, after eight years as managing director of Altitude Film Distribution.
Key Responsibilities
Moseley’s role at Netflix involved overseeing theatrical distribution throughout EMEA. He was responsible for releasing titles such as Bafta best film winners "The Power Of The Dog" and "All Quiet On The Western Front", as well as "Guillermo Del Toro’s Pinocchio", "The Society Of The Snow", and "Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery".
Post-Departure Plan
Screen understands that Netflix will revert to running its EMEA theatrical operations from the US, as it did prior to Moseley’s hire. The streamer will continue to work with its distribution partners in the UK and Europe, including Altitude, Tri Pictures, Lucky Red, and 24 Builder.
Quote
"It’s been a thrill to work with so many brilliant filmmakers at Netflix, giving their extraordinary films a launchpad and an awards profile ahead of their release to the largest home entertainment audience in the world," said Moseley.
Prior Experience
Before joining Netflix, Moseley spent almost 10 years at UK distributor Momentum Pictures/Alliance Films, and started his career as a projectionist and film programmer for Cineworld.
Recent Development
Moseley’s departure comes as Netflix has scaled back its theatrical releases, with fewer narrative fiction titles in this year’s awards race than in previous years. Screen has contacted Netflix for comment.
Conclusion
Hamish Moseley’s departure marks the end of an era for Netflix’s EMEA theatrical distribution. The company will continue to work with its distribution partners to release films in the region.
