WARNER BROS EPIC PURGE Of Employees And Departments HEATS UP! One Woke Program Reinstated!

Warner Bros. Discovery has backed off of a plan to shutter workshops for ascendant writers and directors after industry backlash.

The company said in a statement Wednesday that it was transferring the Directors’ Workshop and Writers’ Workshop programs from a previous home at Warner Bros. Television to its Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion division after the end of the 2022-2023 writers’ workshop. Warner Bros. added that the DEI unit will “grow the Workshop programs through its existing Pipeline Programs division.”

According Warner Bros. Discovery, under the DEI unit the workshops will specifically focus on bringing more creatives from marginalized identities into the industry. Right now, according to a Warner Bros. Discover spokesperson, there are no plans to change the number of participants in the workshops in future years.

Sources say that the current class of writers in the WBTV workshop will be supported in the workshop’s current home until March 2023. The new workshops will be managed at the corporate level and will operate company-wide, with some practices from the WBTV workshops carrying over to the new ones, which will nevertheless make changes to the programs.

On Tuesday, The Hollywood Reporter reported on a previous plan to shut down these programs, which were often regarded as a key entry way for diverse talent to receive important industry opportunities in the directing and writing space, though they didn’t have a diversity mandate per se.

The announcement came about a half hour after the Directors Guild of America declared its intention to “fight” the shutdown of the Warner Bros. Television Workshop and its directing program, which the union says is mandated by its collective bargaining agreement, in its own statement.

“The DGA announced today its commitment to fight against Warner Bros. Discovery’s decision to dismantle its TV directors’ development program,” the union said in a statement on Wednesday. “The DGA will not stand idly by while WB/Discovery seeks to roll back decades of advancement for women and directors of color.” THR has asked the DGA for comment on the latest development.
