Legion M Teams with Endeavor Content to Accelerate Development of Its Expanding Film and TV Slate

Relationship Comes During Exponential Growth of the Fan-Owned Company’s Community and Heightened Emphasis on Internally Developed Projects and Initiatives


LOS ANGELES – Legion M has signed an advisory agreement with Endeavor Content, paving the way for the fan-owned entertainment company and its creative partners to advance its film and television projects. The agreement provides Legion M with Endeavor Content’s range of advisory services, including financing, development, and sales.

The partnership comes on the heels of several new Legion M projects, including its recent acquisition of Brian Staveley’s epic fantasy trilogy The Chronicle of the Unhewn Throne, and the successful publishing of the company’s first-ever comic book, Girl With No Name, which Legion M is co-producing as a feature film, plus additional film, television, and digital projects in its development portfolio. Legion M also recently launched its next generation Film Scout application at the 2020 Sundance Film Festival, providing data-driven consumer analysis to guide Legion M’s next potential film acquisition.

“Joining forces with Endeavor Content marks an exciting new phase for Legion M, opening innumerable possibilities for our expanding portfolio of original projects,” said Paul Scanlan, Legion M co-founder and CEO. “Harnessing Endeavor Content’s strategic guidance and network amplifies our ability to bring projects to market together with our passionate, engaged, and ever-growing fan community ready to support.”

“We’re already seeing the benefits of working with the fantastic team at Endeavor Content,” added Terri Lubaroff, Legion M COO and head of content. “From cultivating original content through high level strategic introductions to exposing Legion M to exciting new filmmakers and packaging our original projects with top talent; pairing Endeavor Content’s industry expertise with Legion M’s fan engagement and exponential growth is an alliance that made sense for us at this stage in our development.”

Legion M brings together more than 100,000 fans from around the world, including more than 25,000 investors into a vibrant, engaged community who literally co-own the company and each and every project across its slate of genre-oriented and fan-focused films, television series, and digital projects, including its feature documentary Memory: The Origins of Alien by Alexandre O. Philippe (Leap of Faith), Kevin Smith’s Jay and Silent Bob Reboot, and the recently announced gritty, hard-edged epic Archenemy starring Joe Manganiello. Legion M’s long term goal is to unite 1 million fans to revolutionize the way entertainment is made in Hollywood.
