Netflix's new film chief, Dan Lin, is shaking things up by reorganizing the film department, shifting away from expensive action films and lavish upfront deals for talent. The company is aiming to produce a wider range of films to appeal to its 260 million subscribers, with a focus on improving quality and reducing budgets. This change has led to some filmmakers and stars seeking other platforms for their projects, as Netflix's strategy of avoiding theatrical releases continues to be a point of contention. Despite this, there is hope that Netflix's renewed focus will provide a home for more diverse films in Hollywood's evolving landscape.
