DIALOGUES Betting on Cinema: Warner Bros’ Pam Abdy & Mike De Luca

Summit

Synopsis

There is a designated number of public tickets to this event. Tickets can be purchased here. Pass holders have first come, first served access.

In an era of industry consolidation, shifting windows, and evolving audience habits, Warner Bros. Motion Picture Group Co-Chairs and Co-CEOs Pam Abdy and Mike De Luca have proven that backing bold, director-led cinema remains a winning strategy. Grounded in a 30-year partnership, the executive duo defied market cynicism by delivering a record-breaking $4 billion slate, balancing major franchise IP with high-stakes original hits like Sinners and One Battle After Another. In this candid conversation, the two pull back the curtain on modern studio leadership to discuss the mechanics of building a risk-tolerant slate, tailoring distribution for next-generation moviegoers and — as De Luca is quoted — putting the "tent" back in "tentpole."
