Paramount Global's Naveen Chopra joins Roblox as finance head
Paramount Global's finance head Naveen Chopra will leave to take on a similar role at video gaming firm Roblox, the companies said on Monday.
The move comes as Paramount is seeking to close its $8.4 billion merger with Skydance Media, which is pending approval from the U.S. Federal Communications Commission.
Andrew Warren, currently Paramount's strategic advisor to the office of the CEO, will take over as interim CFO, the company said.
Chopra succeeds Michael Guthrie at Roblox, which is experiencing increased engagement on its platform from its vast Gen Z user base.
Guthrie announced last year that he would be stepping down as CFO to pursue personal interests.

Tesla's public robotaxi rides set for tentative June 22 start, CEO Musk says

Musk has staked Tesla's future on self-driving vehicles, pivoting away from plans to build a cheaper EV platform, and much of the company's valuation hangs on that vision. But commercializing autonomous vehicles has been challenging with safety concerns, tight regulations and soaring investments, and many have been skeptical of Musk's plans.
