Andrew Llinares Exiting Fremantle After Three Years As Global Entertainment Boss - Deadline

Staff Writer Sept. 25, 2026 12:07 PM PT Five months after pulling back from most of its Los Angeles soundstage business, production services company Quixote is selling much of its equipment operation. Equipment rental house Cinelease recently announced that it had acquired Quixote’s grip and lighting and production supplies assets in Los Angeles and New York. The transaction resulted in roughly 60 layoffs, Quixote said. Most of the affected employees were based in L. A. with a few in New York. The production supplies business will operate as Cinelease Pro Supplies. “Our sales team is reaching out directly to clients with active or upcoming rentals from these businesses and will work with Cinelease to help ensure a smooth transition,” the company said in an email on Sept. 15 to its clients. “It has been our privilege to serve you, and we look forward to continuing to be your source for production and events transportation.”In April, Quixote announced it was winding down most of its Los Angeles soundstage business, including its main commercial studio in West Hollywood and its North Valley studio in Pacoima. A producer has since taken over the Pacoima site.
