The option for sequel rights to the recent Conan film, held by Millennium Films Inc., has not been exercised and the rights have now reverted back to Conan Properties International LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary to Paradox Entertainment Inc. The company is now looking at various opportunities going forward.
