Lower budget products are the first ones to feel the cuts. Chris Fenton, an executive producer, said: “The fear in town is it’s an all-or-nothing game. Either you’re involved in the super-premium category or you’re nervous.”

William Simon, who does executive recruiting for Hollywood put it simply: “Everybody’s pumping the brakes.”
