Rhett & Link‘s Mythical Entertainment has tapped Westbrook general manager Jacob Moncrief as its new COO, and has named former COO Brian Flanagan president.
Flanagan, who joined Mythical in 2016 and was its first COO, will “remain closely involved in all aspects of the core operating business” as president, but will “increase his focus” on Mythical’s long-term goal of being a household name, the company says.
He’ll be spearheading things like Mythical’s “content-commerce-community flywheel,” investment in up-and-coming creators via its $5 million creator accelerator, and its overall global growth strat.
In a statement, Flanagan said this expansion of Mythical’s executive team “signals our ambition to be the definitive television studio for the internet generation.” He added that Moncrief is “a producer and operator of the highest order and we are lucky to have his many talents powering our growth.”
