Longtime Disney animation veteran Andrew Millstein has been named co-president of Blue Sky, which became part of Disney after the Fox deal closed, the Burbank-based company said Friday. Millstein will serve alongside co-president Robert Baird. Millstein replaces Andrea Miloro, who recently left the company.
Additionally, Pixar Animation Studios president Jim Morris has been given a supervisory role at Blue Sky, expanding his duties at the company, Disney said.“We are incredibly proud of the strength and depth of leadership in our animation studios, and Andrew, Clark, and Jim are all exemplars of that,” said Horn and Bergman in a statement.
