AMC Launches Leawood Films to Distribute Small and Mid-Budget Movies
AMC Entertainment is launching a new distribution company, Leawood Films, to distribute and market small and medium sized movies from established and emerging filmmakers. The venture aims to address a post-pandemic shortage of new theatrical content by working not only through AMC screens but also by encouraging other theater owners. Leawood’s first releases are expected in 2027 or 2028 and it says it won’t interfere with studios’ films.
