Sony TV distribution chief Flory Bramnick exits after 24 years
Flory Bramnick is leaving Sony Pictures Television after 24 years.
Bramnick, executive vice-president of distribution for North America, will step down to devote more time to family matters, according to an announcement on 17 September 2026. She will stay on through the autumn to hand over her work, Variety reported.
That handover goes to Monica Veiga. Veiga, who holds the title of executive vice-president of distribution for North America, will take responsibility for the entire North American distribution business.
Distribution is the sales side of television. It is the team that licenses shows and films to other companies to air or stream. In Bramnick’s case, that meant selling Sony’s feature films and television programmes in the United States and Canada across broadcast networks, pay and basic cable, and streaming.
That streaming brief is broad. It covers SVOD, or subscription services such as Netflix; AVOD, or free services funded by adverts; and FAST, or free channels that run to a schedule like live TV.
Veiga knows the patch well. She previously reported to Bramnick and focussed on sales in the US. She now steps up to run the full US and Canada operation.
Bramnick joined Sony Pictures TV in February 2002. Her first role was vice-president of strategic sales operations. She became senior vice-president of US cable distribution in June 2004 and rose from there to lead the North American business.
Her credits include next-day streaming deals for Jeopardy! and Wheel of Fortune in the US and Canada. Next-day means new episodes become available to stream the day after broadcast. For two long-running quiz programmes with loyal viewers, that window matters.
The news was shared by Sony Pictures TV co-presidents Jason Spivak and Mike Wald in a staff memo.
What makes this stand out is continuity. A 24-year run is rare in television sales, where teams and catalogues change hands often. For viewers, this means little changes on screen. The same library still needs a seller. Only the name on the door changes.
