Marvel Movies Get Distribution
Marvel Studios has signed a five picture worldwide distribution deal with Paramount Pictures, for its next five films. Paramount will distribute these five films:
Iron Man 2 (May 7, 2010)
Thor (July 16, 2010)
The First Avenger: Captain America (May 6, 2011)
The Avengers (July 15, 2011)
Iron Man 3 (unscheduled).
The deal consolidates international distribution, which was previously handled by local distribution entities in some cases.
In a bit of a golden handshake, Marvel also announced today that Paramount had paid $60 million in early revenue from this year’s Iron Man; the payment hadn’t been expected until 2009. The early payment caused Marvel to raise its film unit’s 2008 projection by that same $60 million, although it doesn’t change the long-term outlook for the revenues from Iron Man.
