Concourse Media has pre-sold distribution rights for the romantic-fantasy feature film "Vision Board," starring Lucy Hale, to multiple international territories [1, 2].
These deals secure the film's global reach before the official market activities of the Cannes festival begin. By locking in these territories early, the producers ensure a wide international release strategy for the project [1, 2].
The distribution rollout includes several key global regions. Wild Bunch acquired the rights for Germany and Switzerland [1]. For the Oceania market, Rialto secured the film for Australia and New Zealand [1].
Expansion into the Americas and Eastern Europe was also finalized. CDC will handle distribution across Latin America [1], while ProRom secured the rights for Eastern Europe [1].
Additional European and Asian territories have been filled. Three Lines will manage the Benelux region [1], and Paradise acquired the rights for the CIS and Baltics [1].
Concourse Media launched the film at the Cannes market this week to capitalize on the high volume of international buyers present in France [1, 2]. The film's genre as a romantic fantasy is intended to appeal to a broad global audience, leveraging Hale's international profile to drive pre-sale interest [2].
“"Vision Board" has already secured pre-sale distribution deals across Germany, Switzerland, Australia, New Zealand, Latin America, Eastern Europe, Benelux, and the CIS/Baltics.”
The aggressive pre-sale strategy at the Cannes market indicates a confidence in Lucy Hale's bankability as a lead in the romantic-fantasy genre. By securing a fragmented network of regional distributors—ranging from the Benelux region to the Baltics—Concourse Media is mitigating financial risk by locking in guaranteed minimums from various territories before the film's full release.
