eOne adds Summit supply deal to Oz Unit

Entertainment One (eOne) has bolstered its expansion into Australia/New Zealand by adding a supply deal with Twilight franchise producer Summit Entertainment to its Hopscotch unit.

The three-year output deal will see Hopscotch, acquired by the Canadian indie earlier this year, release six to eight movie titles from Los Angeles-based Summit annually.

The agreement gives Hopscotch the rights in all media to Summit product in Australia/New Zealand.

Hopscotch already released Summit’s Source Code feature, leading to the cementing of their relationship down under.

Entertainment One has released Summit Entertainment product in Canada and the UK since 2007.
