Daniel Battsek lost his job as Chief of Miramax Films in October, when Disney cut the Mirimax staff by 70%, but he is currently in talks to become head of National Geographic Films.

The current head of National Geographic, Adam Leipzig, will be stepping down from the position when his contract runs out in March.

We hope everything works out for Daniel!
