Garnett

Garnett took charge of BBC Film in 2017 and set out to reinvigorate the organization and its slate with a commitment to diversity and new voices from outside the mainstream. Whether she has accomplished that goal is open to debate, but she has indeed scored some big critical hits, including 2019’s “Judy,” which earned Renée Zellweger a best actress Oscar for her riveting portrayal of Judy Garland, and Eliza Hittman’s 2020 abortion drama “Never Rarely Sometimes Always.” In December 2020, the BBC followed Holly­wood’s lead and realigned its executive structure so that Garnett and her fellow division heads report to chief content officer Charlotte Moore to better serve its new focus on its iPlayer streaming platform.
