Fremantle has appointed Sharon Levy as CEO of its production operations in the Americas and Australia, effective mid-January 2027, reporting directly to group CEO Jennifer Mullin.

Fremantle is building a production hub for Holey Moley as it takes on the production and distribution rights to the format, also known as Hole In One, from its Eureka Productions label for ABC.

The scheduled Fremantle keynote at Series Mania Forum, set for Wednesday, has been postponed "due to a very serious personal matter that has arisen over the weekend within Jennifer Mullin’s family," Fremantle said in a statement.

Ben Crompton is joining Fremantle this month to become its new global head of entertainment, reporting to CEO Jennifer Mullin.

Andrew Llinares is exiting his post as director of global entertainment at Fremantle this spring.
