Who will take LucasArts hotseat?

Following the departure of Darrell Rodriquez, LucasArts has told MCV it is actively looking for a new president.

Rodriguez resigned from his position after two years at the studio.

LucasFilm’s Jerry Bowerman has been named as Rodriguez’ temporary replacement. No impact is expected to reach the studio’s development teams or publishing sector.

"Darrell Rodriguez has resigned and we have initiated a search for a new leader," said a LucasArts spokespersom.

"Jerry Bowerman – a member of the Lucasfilm Board of Directors and a games industry veteran – will be stepping in to lead the LucasArts executive team during this transition. LucasFilm remains fully committed to making great games and we continue to invest in our business."
