[edit] Brief summary

Newmarket Films is a privately owned independent production and distribution company. Newmarket looks to acquire, produce, and distribute diverse films. The company has produced such films as The Mexican, Cruel Intentions, and the Christopher Nolan films The Prestige and Memento. Newmarket has distributed, in North America, such films as The Passion of the Christ, Whale Rider, Monster, Donnie Darko, and God Grew Tired of Us.

In 2010, after its purchase by Newmarket Capital Group, Lionsgate acquired the domestic theatrical, digital, and television rights to Newmarket's entire library of over 300 films, including future productions, and therefore the video rights to the Newmarket films already issued on DVD/Blu-Ray, as well as full domestic distribution rights, will be transferred to Lionsgate, with the exception of co-productions with and owned by major studios (Dreamworks Pictures, et. al.).
