Wonderfilm Delivers 7 Movies With 13 Going Into Production



WATCH “Midas Letter” CEO INTERVIEW of Low-Risk Film Financing 

Vancouver, BC, July 29, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NEWMEDIAWIRE -- The Wonderfilm Media Corporation (TSXV: WNDR) (OTC: WDRFF), (“Wonderfilm” or the “Company”) announced its June 30th fiscal year-end production update in which the Company met all goals, developing, financing and producing seven features, including Zombie Tidal Wave for NBC/Universal premiering on SyFy Channel August 17th, Fanatic starring John Travolta hitting theatres August 30th and the Nicolas Cage action feature, Primal in theatres November 8th.

Kirk Shaw, CEO: “It’s exciting to have audiences getting the chance to experience our films and to see individual film’s revenue streams now starting to kick in as the Company’s production slate continues to gain momentum. However, as much as this is a wonderful realization of all our hard work over the past year, I have to caution that corporately Wonderfilm Revenue is recognized only after each film is delivered, which means most of the revenue associated with this year’s production won’t hit the books until the next fiscal year. But it’s great to finally have tangible results to point to.”

Currently Wonderfilm has 13 more films in or going into production with six scheduled to be delivered in the first quarter of 2020. In fact, 2020 is shaping up to be a much brighter year with many significant movies and TV Series in our development queue, including eight features already green-lit for shooting, representing $60 million US in production budgets. Most notable among the green-lit features are the horror, Amityville 1974, in theatres October 2020 and the action film, Inside Game starring Tyrese Gibson hitting theatres in the fall of 2020. The Company is also currently developing secured valuable IP rights including the Steve McQueen Story and the book adaptation, Merchant of Death.  Additional details on Wonderfilm’s expanding 2020 slate will be announced at the Toronto Film Festival in partnership with our new foreign sales division, Wonderfilm Global. 

Wonderfilm and Wonderfilm Global are preparing a big splash at this September’s TIFF, announcing a premier in conjunction with the festival releasing its official schedule. 

The Wonderfilm core producing team of Kirk Shaw, Shaun Redick, Dan Grodnik, Bret Saxson and Jeff Bowler are busy broadening and burnishing the Wonderfilm brand by raising the profile of our films across the industry, attracting “A” list stars to our productions and widening our theatrical releases. The company has found success with a business model of “Low-Risk Film Financing” which CEO Kirk Shaw explains in a recent interview with the Midas Letter which can be viewed at https://midasletter.com/2019/06/the-wonderfilm-media-corp-cvewndr-low-risk-film-financing/.
