Scott Stuber

Scott Stuber, born in Los Angeles in 1968, is the Hollywood dealmaker who pivoted from producing blockbusters like "Ted" and "The Break-Up" to reshaping Netflix's film strategy as the head of its original films division. Since joining Netflix in 2017, Stuber has navigated the streaming giant through the choppy waters of content overload, overseeing a string of successes like "Bird Box" and "The Irishman." Despite the accolades, his tenure has not been without controversy, as critics have questioned the sustainability of Netflix’s high-spending spree under his watch. Stuber’s knack for mixing commercial hits with award contenders keeps him firmly in the Hollywood spotlight.
