Dear All,

I am writing to inform you that our dear colleague Stephanie Ito is leaving Paramount Pictures.

During her time at the studio, she has been instrumental in many of Paramount’s greatest successes, including such recent hits as Mission: Impossible—Fallout, A Quiet Place and Sonic the Hedgehog, among so many others.
