Tell that to MoviePass.
Isn't movie pass shutting down for like 2 weeks?
Ostensibly to retool their app, but...
The company also indicated it has plans to "recapitalize" in order to facilitate a seamless transition and improved subscriber experience once the service continues, which an even cursory analysis could explain the true rationale for the move.
So, IOW... to borrow more money.

Potentially due to her relationship with HarperCollins, they lost access to a huge library of fiction and nonfiction novels that could be used to make films. If you look at most of the films Fox made, outside superhero films, most were based off novels (Slumdog Millionaire, The Martian, Life of Pi, etc)

Given that no successor has been named, could her position be abolished/reorganized in the post-Fox structure?

It's hard not to read this as evidence ABC Studios and 20th Century Fox TV will combine at some point. Question is whether or not the ABC or 20th Century Fox name will be used.
