EXCLUSIVE: Warner Bros Pictures executive vice president Jessica Goodman will be leaving the studio at year’s end. Goodman informed Alan Horn and Jeff Robinov of her decision to leave months ago, but she stayed on to see through the production of movies. The last of them, the Steven Soderbergh-directed Contagion, wraps in the next few days. Goodman, who is married to Paramount Pictures production chief Adam Goodman, started as an assistant at Universal, but has essentially spent her entire 13 year career at Warner Bros., and meshed well with those Warner Bros producers with out-sized personalities like Joel Silver and Jerry Weintraub. Among the dozens of films she supervised are the upcoming Martin Campbell-directed Ryan Reynolds-starrer Green Lantern, The Informant!, Watchmen, I Am Legend, Michael Clayton, The Brave One, Training Day and the Ocean’s Eleven films. Goodman will take her time deciding her next move.

Congrats to Jessica on the next chapter of her life. Whatever she does, i know she will be great at it!
One of the BEST. She will be outstanding in whatever she chooses to pursue next.
Green Lantern, The Informant!, Watchmen, I Am Legend, Michael Clayton, The Brave One, Training Day and the Ocean’s Eleven. all bombs except Ocean’s and Green Lantern must be bad. Time for the mommy and me classes with the others Good riddance.
Training Day was not a bomb dummy. And last I checked it won a major Oscar for a pretty damn good actor.
when are those movies coming out?
Jessica will be missed. Classy woman and knew how to handle her shit…especially with incredibly difficult people. WB’s loss.
“supervised”… LOL. she stayed out of the way is more lie it.
so funny reading all the hater comments. Jessica is smart and has always handled talent well. Love the guy who is trying to make a point about Michael Clayton and The Informant! being bombs…both films made profit for the studio and were GOOD. go back to picking your underwear out of your ass ‘see ya’
love seeing the positive comments for this girl. Undoubtedly one of the least liked executives among the agent and manager community. Always difficult to deal with. She always had an attitude. Good riddance.
let’s be honest here. the positive comments are obviously from friends (JulieW) or people who hope to get favors from her hubby. jessica is not a nice person and she’s not particularly smart. her greatest skill is that she knows (or knew) how to kiss up to the right people. if you look at her entire movie slate over her tenure at warner bros, she actually LOST money for the studio and her major hits were not really her own. Michael Clayton was bought by the studio. and as for the Ocean Eleven movies, do you really think Soderbergh gave one crap about any notes that came from her? her primary job was to fly to set and wine and dine the stars. as for I Am Legend, the director and the star were already attached when she inherited the project. the list goes on. i guess warner bros is finally looking at the numbers and getting rid of those execs who waste money while being rude and obnoxious to everyone around them. clearly, she’s no longer in the good graces of robinov or he would’ve fought to keep her. make no mistake – this was not her decision.
Code for “I’m leaving to have a baby and hope I can get back in 7 years from now.”
“You just don’t understand…my time is not my own” Jesus H. Christ Jessica you have been on our phone list for 2 1/2 years bitch! Completely worthless waste of an office in Bldg 3. Adam Goodman will dump her soon…just like every executive does…trade in the old bat for a newer model. Maybe the new wife will return phone calls!
