Canal+ creates comedy division
September 4, 2026



Canal+ Group has announced the creation of the Bureau de la Comédie, a cross-functional unit between Canal+ and StudioCanal entirely dedicated to comedy. In collaboration with the Canal+ editorial teams, the structure will cover comedy in all its forms: feature-length films, fictions, TV shows and short movies.

Jérémie Khiat has been appointed Director of the Bureau de la Comédie, effective immediately. He will lead all of the bureau’s activities and will report to Jean-Marc Juramie, Deputy CEO of Canal+ France, in charge of Programmes and Channels, and Anna Marsh, CEO of StudioCanal, for feature film co-productions.


Khiat began his career at StudioCanal in 2019 in international film sales before joining the Canal+ Original Creation development teams. In 2021, he joined StudioCanal’s French Film Production division. In 2022, he joined Canal+ as a project manager, overseeing fictional comedy content. In 2024, he became Editorial Director in charge of TV shows and fictions (Loups-Garous, Le Monde Magique de Jérôme Commandeur…) until the end of 2025.
