Marian Koltai-Levine joins as president of marketing and communications. She joins AGBO after a 13-year tenure at Rogers & Cowan/PMK, where she was president of film content and marketing.

“This trio of talent will build the next foundation of AGBO’s expansion and successes. Each, in his or her own right, would be a tremendous addition to our team. The three, together, represent a powerful force for change and growth,” said Larocca and AGBO president of creative Angela Russo-Otstot.

AGBO’s upcoming slate includes The Gray Man (Netflix) and Extraction 2 (Netflix); Citadel (Amazon Prime Studios); as well as Electric State and the recently released indie film Everything, Everywhere, All At Once. ■
