Hugh ‘Hef’ Hefner died in September 2017 at the age of 91. Scott Flanders is now the CEO of Playboy.

Cooper was being groomed by Hugh to take over Playboy; when he was in college, he started working at  Playboy Enterprises. 

But he reportedly did not see things the same way as CEO Flanders and he left the company and launched the media startup company Hop (Hefner Operations & Productions).
