Pitt’s Plan B promotes producer to co-president

(Cover) - EN Movies - Brad Pitt’s production company Plan B Entertainment has found a co-president in Jeremy Kleiner.

The company was established by Brad, his ex-wife Jennifer Aniston and Brad Grey in 2002. Since then Plan B has been busy creating several highly lauded productions such as Academy Award-winning thriller The Departed and Kick-Ass.

Brad has been the sole owner since 2006 and has worked with Jeremy on several of the production house’s features.

Jeremy served as producer for forthcoming zombie picture World War Z and 2013’s 12 Years a Slave.

“Jeremy Kleiner has played an immeasurable role in the success of this company. This promotion is long overdue. We are happy to make it official,” Brad told Deadline.

Jeremy joined Plan B in 2003 as a creative executive.

He slowly climbed the ranks, rising to the role of producer and now co-president.

Plan B’s next project World War Z will reach American theatres June 21. The feature based on the 2006 post-apocalyptic horror novel by Max Brooks sees a man trying to save the world from zombies.
