About
Globus Group Media Entertainment is an independent film production, financing, and distribution company that works closely with filmmakers to develop, produce, finance, and distribute feature films. Founded by Ori Globus and Alex Hazan with the objective to create and distribute films with a new age vision, the company aims to reach diverse audiences across the globe. Academy Award-nominated producer Yoram Globus was brought into the fold to supplement this new age vision with years of experience, having produced over 350 films. At Globus Group Media Entertainment, we combine experience with a youthful perspective to create and distribute films for a new generation of audiences.
Yoram Globus came into Hollywood prominence as the head of Cannon Group Inc. At Cannon, he produced both commercial successes and critically acclaimed arthouse films. Creating blockbusters such as Cobra starring Sylvester Stallone, The Delta Force and Missing In Action starring Chuck Norris, Death Wish II and Death Wish 3 starring Charles Bronson, Superman IV starring Christopher Reeve, A Cry in the Dark starring Meryl Streep, and Bloodsport starring Jean Claude Van Damme. Also producing classic arthouse films such as Andrei Konchalovsky’s Oscar nominated Runaway Train, Franco Zefferilli’s critically acclaimed adaptation Otello, John Cassavetes’s Golden Bear winner Love Streams, Jean Luc Godard’s King Lear, Barbaret Schroeder’s Palme d’Or nominee Barfly and Robert Altman’s Fool for Love.
It was for good reason that the Cannes Film Festival was nicknamed the Cannon Film Festival in the 80’s. Working with both commercial stars and film auteurs Mr. Globus turned Cannon into a billion dollar company. Later, Mr. Globus became president of MGM, where he collaborated in greenlighting films for film legends such as The Russia House starring Sean Connery, Not Without My Daughter starring Sally Fields, and Ridley Scott’s Thelma and Louise. Mr. Globus has enjoyed a long and successful career collaborating with stars such as Kim Basinger, Michelle Pfeiffer, and Jon Voight.
Yoram Globus carries over his expertise to Globus Group Media Entertainment with plans of producing commercial films through strategic partnerships with studios, agencies and foreign sales companies. With a combined experience of over 40 years working in foreign markets and festivals such as the Cannes Film Festival, our team understands foreign sales in order to insure a film’s financial success. We offer A-list filmmakers as well as talent the opportunity to partner with a financier that fosters a creative environment.
