Mike Dunn, president, worldwide, 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment
Dunn oversees all of the studio’s domestic and international home entertainment businesses, managing $2.5 billion in annual revenue. And as digital becomes increasingly important, Dunn’s goal is to grow that revenue by offering consumers content in every way possible.
Convincing consumers to own entertainment via digital outlets — while also emphasizing Blu-ray ownership — is among Dunn’s current focuses.
He’s pushing Fox to be at the forefront of creating a digital pathway for consumers, by fostering affordable, accessible and easy ways for consumers to access their entertainment anywhere, anytime.
Dunn’s team works with 60,000-plus retailers and other industry partners to manage the hundreds of products released each year by the home entertainment unit. Before his current position, Dunn was EVP of sales and marketing for the studio, and before that SVP of Europe for 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment International.

Previously serving as SVP of international brand marketing, Marcais came to Los Angeles after serving as Fox’s VP of marketing for the European home entertainment arm of the studio, based in London, where he oversaw marketing and sales development. He’s also served as acting managing director for Fox Home Entertainment Germany and marketing director at Fox Pathe Europa. Marcais began his career at Fox Video France.
