Mnuchin joins Lionsgate Board of Directors
January 26, 2026
Lionsgate Studios has announced that its Board of Directors has appointed Steven T. Mnuchin, as a director, effective immediately.
Mnuchin brings financial and regulatory expertise from his tenure as US Treasury Secretary, as well as entertainment industry experience from his leadership at Dune Capital Management – a hedge fund that focused on entertainment industry investments. Mnuchin co-financed the box office hit Avatar and has more than 35 executive producer credits, including some of the highest-grossing blockbusters of all time. He is now the Managing Partner of Liberty Strategic Capital, a private equity firm focused on technology, financial services, fintech, and new forms of content. His decades of leadership across global financial markets – including as a Goldman Sachs partner, leader of multiple investment and banking platforms, chair of the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS), and as a member of the National Security Council – equip him with seasoned judgment on risk, governance, capital markets and other financial matters.
“Steven brings a long record of public and private sector leadership and is an exceptional addition to the Lionsgate Board,” said Dr Mark Rachesky, Chair of the Lionsgate Board of Directors. “His steady judgment, global perspective and deep industry insights will be enormously valuable as Lionsgate continues to grow as one of the world’s leading pure-play content studios. Steven and his fund are significant Lionsgate investors, and his interests are aligned with those of Lionsgate shareholders. I and the rest of the Board look forward to working closely with him on the creation of further shareholder value.”
“I have long admired Lionsgate’s creativity, entrepreneurial spirit, and ability to excel in a competitive industry. I am pleased to join the Company’s Board,” added Mnuchin. “Lionsgate’s Board and management team are building something dynamic and forward‑looking, and I am eager to support that momentum. I look forward to helping guide the company in combining strong vision with disciplined execution.”
