Geoff Johns is exiting his role as the president and chief creative officer of DC Entertainment, where he oversaw the recent spate of DC comic book movies including Justice League and Wonder Woman. He will segue into an exclusive writer-producer deal with Warner Bros. and DC Entertainment through his newly launched Mad Ghost Productions banner, where he will create comics, film and TV content.
DC Comics publisher Jim Lee will take over as chief creative officer of DC Entertainment. Lee will also continue to serve as DC Comics publisher alongside Dan DiDeo.
Johns’ exit from his DC Entertainment post comes days after the departure of DC Entertainment president Diane Nelson, to whom Johns reported. Warners exec Walter Hamada was put in charge of DC movies development in January.
