Ahead of the launch of Apple TV+ later this year, Apple continues to expand the executive team around the service. The company has now added Danielle DePalma as a marketing executive for Apple TV shows and films.

Deadline was first to report on the hire, noting that DePalma will serve as a manager in Apple’s video marketing team. She will report to Chris Van Amburg, Apple’s head of video marketing.

Prior to joining the Apple TV marketing team, DePalma has had a storied career in the film industry. She most recently served as an executive vice president at Lionsgate, working on marketing campaigns for films such as The Hunger Games series:

DePalma was a Lionsgate veteran who spent about a decade at the company before leaving in January. At Lionsgate she previously served as SVP digital marketing and VP new media and marketing, overseeing the digital/social media campaigns for such movies as The Hunger Games franchise and Kick-Ass.

Earlier this week, Apple hired a former A+E executive to serve as its head of documentaries for Apple TV+. The service is expected to launch this fall, giving users access to Apple’s growing library of original TV shows and movies.
