He has overseen major deals with Netflix, Amazon, and Sky, and played a significant role in developing hits such as "Downton Abbey" and "The Last Kingdom." MacLellan's departure follows the appointment of Jay Askinasi as the new leader of ad sales, David Decker as content sales overseer, and Ray Hopkins as president of distribution.
