Leonine Studios CEO Fred Kogel said the following:
So what movies are included in the deal? The list consists of “John Wick 4,” the upcoming “John Wick” spin-off “Ballerina,” Channing Tatum’s “Dog,” “Moonfall,” Nicolas Cage’s “The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent,” “Asterix & Obelix: The Middle Kingdom,” Jennifer Lopez’s “Shotgun Wedding,” and “The School of Magical Animals 2.”
“It’s fantastic that we can expand our long-standing partnership with Prime Video by this agreement and achieve another important milestone for our licensing business with premium content. In addition to our strong production collaboration, which includes series like ‘FC Bayern: Behind the Legend,’ ‘The Gryphon’ and ‘One Mic Stand,’ Prime Video can now offer its customers the top selection of local and international premium titles from our portfolio over the coming years.”
What’s mine is not theirs
“Moonfall” may have been a box office bomb but it’s absolutely the kind of movie people will take to on streaming. It goes without saying that the “John Wick” franchise is incredibly attractive and has a huge audience, so that’s a huge win. This is the kind of deal that lowkey helps a ton in the streaming wars. Christoph Schneider, Managing Director of Prime Video Germany, said the following:
“We are happy to expand the cooperation between Leonine Studios and Prime Video to the benefit of our Prime members. They can look forward to highlights such as ‘Moonfall’ with Halle Berry, ‘John Wick 4’ with Keanu Reeves and ‘Dog’ with Channing Tatum and also have access to numerous films from Leonine Studios’ extensive catalog. It is simply great to be a Prime member.”
