Jason DeMarco Expands Role to Senior Vice President, Anime and Action Series/Longform at Warner Bros. Animation, Cartoon Network Studios

Warner Bros. announced on Tuesday that Adult Swim's senior vice president and head of anime and action series Jason DeMarco will have a new expanded role as senior vice president in the anime and action series/longform department at Warner Bros. Animation (WBA) and Cartoon Network Studios (CNS). DeMarco will still retain his role at Adult Swim, and he will report to Sam Register, president of WBA and CNS and Michael Ouweleen, president of Adult Swim.

DeMarco will spearhead WBA and CNS' expansion into producing anime content, identifying and developing projects in the animated action genre, and developing and producing series and longform programming for all audiences. DeMarco will also be the lead creative executive on The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim, the feature film directed by Kenji Kamiyama (Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex, Blade Runner: Black Lotus, Eden of the East) and produced by New Line Cinema and WBA.

DeMarco is also the current series and development executive of anime at Adult Swim. He is overseeing production of the Fena: Pirate Princess, Uzumaki, and Blade Runner: Black Lotus anime. He is also leading the creative direction, development, and implementation of on-air communication, promotion, packaging, and sponsorships on Adult Swim's Toonami block.

DeMarco became vice president of strategic marketing and promotions for Cartoon Network and Adult Swim in April 2012. He co-created the Toonami block with Sean Akins in 1997.

Jason DeMarco goes into this new position on his Twitter:

"To clarify a bit: this new position means that other than Toonami, my full time job will be making series and feature films. I won't be involved in marketing or promotion for anything at Adult Swim beyond Toonami. Sadly, that includes music. I will still consult there a bit..."

"Also uh guys? When they say "anime" here they mean anime as in "created and produced in Japan." Not "anime-esque" as in Avatar or Castlevania, although I'm interested in that sort of production too. But I'm definitely making a bunch of ANIME. IN case there's any doubt.

Yeah that is why I post the videos on this thread and why this thread was created in the 1st place. If people didn’t then there would be no point for either.

Fena Pirate Princess for instance is actually the series on Toonami that is getting most viewers on cable and even ranks pretty highly compared to other shows that also air at nighttime on Saturdays. But yes there is also shows that I wish would do better than what they are getting. Overall though I would say Anime on Cable still has quite a few years left and it will be sad whenever it does die out since I refuse Streaming services to be my norm. I only do exclusive series on Streaming services. Everything else is either Cable or Blu-ray.
