Hannah Minghella has joined Netflix as Head of Feature Animation and Live-Action Family Film, replacing Karen Toliver and Traci Balthazor, who will be leaving the streaming platform. Minghella transitioned to Netflix from Bad Robot, where she served as president of Motion Pictures, overseeing live-action, animation, and documentary features. Before her tenure at Bad Robot, Minghella spent nearly 15 years at Sony Pictures and Columbia, working on animated hits such as Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs and Hotel Transylvania, as well as live-action successes like 21 Jump Street and Casino Royale.

She will report to the new film head Dan Lin. In addition, Sharon Taylor will rejoin Netflix to lead production on feature animation from Vancouver. Previously the CEO of Animal Logic Studios, the animation studio behind The Lego Movie, Taylor returns following Netflix's acquisition of the studio in 2022.
