WWE Studios
Established in 2002 and re-branded in 2008, WWE Studios creates a diversified mix of filmed entertainment by means of strategic production, financing, distribution and acquisition partnerships. WWE movies frequently cast well-known actors and actresses in lead roles supported by WWE Superstars, such as John Cena, Triple H and Wade Barrett. WWE Studios has produced “No One Lives” with Pathe Pictures, starring Luke Evans (“The Immortals”) and WWE Superstar Brodus Clay, acquired the 2011 Toronto International Film Festival cult hit “The Day,” starring Shawn Ashmore (“X-Men Trilogy”) and Dominic Monaghan (“Lord of the Rings” Trilogy, “LOST”). WWE Studios also has multipicture production deals set up with Lions Gate Films and Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment. Most recently, it partnered with Academy Award winning producer Thomas Langmann (“The Artist”) and Kare Productions on “Queens of the Ring,” a French-language comedy drama which will feature WWE Superstars in cameo roles.
With its content creation and distribution partners, WWE Studios continues to build its brand recognition to its strong WWE fan base as well as to larger audiences and increase its worldwide reach across all platforms. WWE Studios’ movies can be seen in theaters and are available for purchase or rental through major retail and distribution channels.
