Screen Rant is an online entertainment news website which offers news in the field of television, films, video games and film theories. Screen Rant was launched by Vic Holtreman in 2003,[1] and originally had its headquarters in Ogden, Utah.[2][3] Screen Rant has expanded its coverage with red-carpet events in Los Angeles, New York film festivals and San Diego Comic-Con panels.[4][5] The associated YouTube channel has over 7.7 million subscribers. The channel also posts Pitch Meeting videos by Ryan George that each have at least several hundred thousand views.[6]

In 2015, Screen Rant was acquired by Valnet, Inc., an online media publisher based in Montreal.[7][8]
