Reese Witherspoon's Hello Sunshine has reduced its workforce by half following founder and media partner Mediawan's purchase of the company for a fraction of its former valuation. The staff reduction, which affects around 30 employees, marks a shift in focus towards film and television projects, as well as the Reese’s Book Club brand.
Hello Sunshine, previously known for its direct-to-consumer approach, will now prioritize developing projects for content and products endorsed by Witherspoon. The company, which was founded in 2016, will collaborate with Mediawan's portfolio of production companies, which include See-Saw Films, Margot Robbie’s LuckyChap International, and Misfits Entertainment.
Hello Sunshine's lineup includes Prime Video's "Elle" and Apple TV's "Lucky" and "The Morning Show," as well as HBO's "Big Little Lies."
