The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed that McCarthy will help produce shows for NBCU and manage the company's relationship with Sheridan, who is set to move his film deal to NBCU next year, and his TV output deal a few years after that. McCarthy exited Paramount earlier this year after David Ellison and his Skydance acquired the media company from the Redstone family. McCarthy had been one of the three men occupying Paramount Global's "Office of the CEO" following Bob Bakish's exit. George Cheeks is still there; Brian Robbins is not. McCarthy oversaw Sheridan's universe of hits, which also include Yellowstone prequel 1923 and its prequel 1883. Sheridan is also behind the Sylvester Stallone-led Tulsa King, its own spinoff Nola King, and other series like Special Ops: Lioness and Mayor of Kingstown. Sheridan's next next film, an action-thriller called F.A.S.T., is set up at Warner Bros. It was NBCU chief Donna Langley who poached Sheridan from Paramount. Sheridan's new deal is said to be worth as much as $1 billion, should his output there meet certain criteria. It now sounds like it also came with one cozy executive of his choice. Bloomberg first reported the move. More to come.
