Chairman, International Content & Operations
Campbell has an impressively far-reaching content purview that can’t be appreciated by most English-language-centric observers. She currently oversees more than 500 local originals in various stages of development and production for iterations of the company’s Disney+ platform (e.g., India’s Disney+ Hotstar), with plans to premiere over 300 new originals annually in the next few years across Asia-Pacific, India, Latin America, Europe, the Middle East and Africa. In June, she closed a $3.01 billion deal to secure the domestic broadcast TV rights to Indian Premier League soccer for Disney Star networks, and the following month she spearheaded a pact with South Korean entertainment company HYBE for a global content collaboration that will include five original titles for Disney streaming services, highlighted by two from K-pop group BTS.
