Among the shape-shifters leaving CAA is Larry Shapiro, as reported by Nikki Finke.

Shapiro was the head of the video game unit. Seamus Blackley is still there, along with Ophir Lupu. The team brought Doom to the multiplex, but the Halo movie stalled.

Far bigger news in the game world is the retirement of Sony CEO current director, chairman, CEO, and "father of the PlayStation" Ken Kutaragi.
