Luc Besson's EuropaCorp Plans Layoffs Following 'Valerian' Losses

The company plans to cut 22 employees company-wide after the director retook the helm of the company on Jan. 1.
Luc Besson’s EuropaCorp plans to lay off 22 of its Paris-based staff in an effort to cut costs and refocus on core business activities after the box-office failure of Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets.

In a brief statement Monday, the company said it would cut its workforce from the current 79 employees to 57 to “carry out its strategy of refocusing on core business activities.”

The company posted an $83 million loss in December, following a record $135 million loss for the 2016 financial year.

Founder Besson retook the helm of the company on Jan. 1 following the departure of CEO Marc Shmuger in November. Deputy CEO Edouard de Vesinne left in September.

EuropaCorp sold off its French-language TV production arm in November for $13 million in an effort to bolster its growing English-language TV production, which remains a bright spot for the struggling company. It produces NBC’s Taken and the just-announced The French Detective starring Oscar-winner Jean Dujardin.

That was the latest in asset sales, after the company unloaded its multiplex business in 2016.
