Nordisk Film Signs Output Deal With 74 Entertainment

74 Entertainment was set up in 2017 by veteran producers Kjetil Omberg and Jorgen Storm Rosenberg to make commercially-orientated feature films and series “rooted in Nordic culture" targeting both the local and international markets., a 2018 remake of a Norwegian comedy classic, was a huge local hit, earning $3.75 million in Norway last year and cracking the top 10 for the year.

"We are more than ever focused on Scandinavian films and on finding the best partners across the Nordics,” said Rasmus Krogh, director for Nordic Acquisition in Nordisk Film. "74 Entertainment has a solid commercial track-record, and we are excited by this new collaboration. We look forward to bringing their many future films and series to the market.”

Local-language production has become increasingly attractive for international distributors as a way to distinguish themselves from the big blockbusters of the major studios, especially as traditional U.S. independent films struggle to find a global audience.

Nice.
