Black Bear has named Paramount and Disney veteran Dan Cohen as its head of television distribution and will launch a digital networks vertical for the indie firm.

Recruiting Cohen is a big to support Black Bear’s investment in a broad slate of independent films. The studio aims to release 10-12 titles per year, with upcoming entries that include “Wicker,” “Wife and Dog,” “Jason Statham Stole My Bike,” “A Woman in the Sun,” “Jonah” and “Atmosphere.”
