I’ve learned that Stephanie Allen, EVP of marketing at Fox Searchlight Pictures, is leaving after a decade there promoting Slumdog Millionaire, Sideways, Juno, Little Miss Sunshine, Napoleon Dynamite, and other pics. “Stephanie has decided to take a break from the movie business. She is already enrolled in graduate school, pursuing a Masters in Fine Arts, and also wants to become a better surfer. We will miss her mightily,” an insider tells me. Fox Searchlight is in the process of finding her replacement.

LOVE love love that woman! She is the absolute best.
nice article
stephanie allen has been a standout professional. she will be missed and extremely difficult to replace.
absolutely the best! professional and especially as a person. glad she’s still surfing, haven’t seen her in awhile. and so beautiful!
STEPHANIE ALLEN IS THE BEST!
They don’t come any better. Period.
Stephanie is an amazingly remarkable creative genius, kind, smart, generous and this is a huge loss to the creative community, she raises the bar when everyone else just settles for the status quo of creativity.
End of an era. She is the best of the best. The brighest of the brightest. Smart, funny, kind, creative to a fault, never has a bad word to say about anyone and treats her staff amazingly well. It’s a loss. But happy that she’s going off to pursue her dreams.
Anybody know what MFA degree is she pursuing – film, creative writing, art, drama???
A sad day for filmmakers and peers. Stephanie is a class-act and a creative force that raised the bar. She will be missed and admired.
She has no equal. She will be missed. And there will be no one left to creatively raise the bar in this vaccumm of sludge that this town churns out and insists on calling creative advertising.
