MarVista Entertainment is an American production company, based in Westwood, Los Angeles, California. The company mainly provides financing and some original content, mainly made-for-TV films and direct-to-SVOD titles, many of which are carried by networks such as Lifetime (such as the Will Ferrell/Kristen Wiig Lifetime Movie trope parody film A Deadly Adoption), along with Netflix.
History
MarVista was founded in 2003 by Fernando and Joseph Szew as a commission-based distributor of third party programming. As of 2015[update], MarVista had expanded its library of 250 hours of licensed programming to over 2,500 hours of programming to television broadcasters and other global distribution channels in its 125 territories, including video on demand (VOD), subscription video on demand (SVOD), and broadband platforms through MarVista Digital Entertainment (MVDE).[2][3]
MVDE was launched in 2014 to handle distribution and licensing of the company's digital content in North America.[4]
Beginning after acquiring capital investments in 2011, the company also began creating its own television and feature film content.[3]
In 2016, MarVista and SpectreVision announced an agreement to co-produce four horror and thriller films over the following two years.[5]
