Netflix TV executives Carolina Garcia, Lisa Lang McMullen, Andrew McQuinn and James Oh reported leaving amid layoffs

Netflix television directors Carolina Garcia, Lisa Lang McMullen, Andrew McQuinn and James Oh were reported to be leaving the company on October 14, 2026, as layoffs affected about 1,000 employees. Deadline and Variety independently identified the four executives. Variety reported that Netflix declined to comment on their departures.

Both outlets put the wider cuts at approximately 6% of Netflix’s workforce. The names give a clearer picture of the effect on its television operation, although the reported job losses reach well beyond that team.

Which Netflix television executives are leaving

Garcia was let go from her role as director of original series, according to Variety. She joined Netflix in 2016 and had spent a decade at the company. Deadline also named her among the directors affected by the cuts.

Variety reported that McMullen joined Netflix in 2021 and was promoted to her most recent role in 2023. McQuinn had been with the company since 2018. His work there included Griselda, American Primeval, The Residence, Zero Day and Vikings: Valhalla, the outlet reported. Those credits show the television work associated with one of the executives now reported to be leaving.

The reported exits also include managers. Variety identified Jason Pan, a manager in original series creative development, as departing. Deadline named Pan and also reported that managers Dan Evans and Aaron Davidson were leaving. Those additional names come from Deadline’s report.

How the TV departures fit into Netflix’s wider layoffs

Netflix co-CEOs Ted Sarandos and Greg Peters said product, technology, legal and human resources teams would bear the largest impact, according to Variety. The reported television exits identify another affected part of the company, while the co-CEOs’ account places the greatest number of cuts in other functions.

NewsJaws’ earlier report covered the wider Netflix job cuts and their impact on product and technology teams. The newly named television executives add detail about the people affected by the same layoffs.
