Lionsgate, a Publicly Owned company headquartered in the US, was founded in 1997 and employs approximately 1880 people. Functioning as a tier 1 media tech buyer, the company specializes in the production of films, television series, and digital products for linear and over-the-top platforms.
On July 9, 2026, Spin Master announced Lionsgate as a new studio collaborator for its competitive horror trading card game, Hellbreak, slated for release in Fall 2026. AMC Global Media and Blumhouse also joined the game's lineup. Previously, on July 3, reports from Cosmic Book News, citing unnamed industry insiders, indicated that The Walt Disney Co. was reportedly considering an acquisition of Lionsgate Studios to appeal to male and family moviegoers as several of its flagship franchises faced box office slumps. Earlier on July 2, an insider told Cosmic Book News that Disney brands such as Lucasfilm, Marvel, and Pixar had experienced significant audience loss, which required addressing. This follows reports from July 1 that Netflix continued to show interest in Lionsgate, despite denials, while an earlier report on the same day suggested Disney was targeting Lionsgate as part of its preparations for a potential Paramount-Warner Bros. conflict, with insiders adding context that the strategy was not financially motivated.
