Tsujihara to Succeed Meyer as Head of Warner Brothers

By BROOKS BARNES

LOS ANGELES — Kevin Tsujihara will succeed Barry M. Meyer as chief executive of Warner Brothers, the studio announced on Monday, ending a disruptive and lingering competition for one of the biggest jobs in Hollywood. But, with two senior Warner executives publicly passed over, disorder at the studio could continue.
Home to Batman, Bugs Bunny, “Two and a Half Men” and TMZ.com, Warner is Hollywood’s largest movie and television studio. It has also been the industry’s most stable. Mr. Meyer, who is retiring, has led Warner since 1999; a single management team oversaw the studio for the previous 18 years.
