Village Roadshow Pictures

Village Roadshow Pictures is an American subsidiary of an Australian co-producer and co-financier of major Hollywood motion pictures, established in 1986. It is a division under Village Roadshow Entertainment Group (VREG),[1] which in turn is owned by Australian media company Village Roadshow. It has produced over 100 films since its establishment in 1986 including, as co-productions with Warner Bros., The Matrix series, the Sherlock Holmes series, the Happy Feet series, the Ocean's series, The Lego Movie and Joker. The films in the Village Roadshow library have achieved 34 number one U.S. box office openings and received 50 Academy Award nominations, 19 Academy Awards and six Golden Globe Awards.[2] [3]

Village Roadshow Pictures self-distributes its film entertainment through affiliates in several territories around the world, including Australia, New Zealand and Singapore (the latter through Golden Village).[4] J.P. Morgan Chase and Rabobank International provides some funding for Village Roadshow's film slate with Warner Bros.[1] Village Roadshow had a secondary finance slate with Sony Pictures which ended in 2016.[5]

History

Village Roadshow Pictures was formed in 1986.[5] In 1997, the company had signed a first-look deal with Warner Bros. Pictures to finance their films for a five-year period. Bruce Berman, of the aborted Plan B Entertainment company was signed on as president of the studio.[6]

In 2012, Warner Bros. Pictures and Village Roadshow Pictures had extended their co-financing first look deal through 2017.[ citation needed ] In May 2014, VRPG established a supplementary co-financing production deal with Sony Pictures Entertainment which commenced with the release of The Equalizer and Annie.[ citation needed ] A second agreement was made due to the large amount of available capital.[5]

In 2015, VREG, the holding company of Village Roadshow Pictures and Village Roadshow Television, was recapitalized with a $480 million investment that included funds from Falcon Investment Advisors and Vine Alternative Investments.[ citation needed ] Falcon Investment Advisors and Vine Alternative Investments added additional capital in April 2017 to take a controlling stake in the corporation.[ citation needed ] This was to fund a new strategic plan for an expanded film slate and add production of television programs and other content forms.[7]

More recently, his Phantom Four company held by David S. Goyer has struck a first look deal with Village Roadshow Pictures.[8]
