Village Roadshow Library Sold to Alcon

Amid Chapter 11 proceedings, Village Roadshow Entertainment Group’s entire 108‑film library—including blockbusters like Mad Max: Fury Road, Matrix and Joker—has been acquired by Alcon Media Group for $417.5 million. This transfer of IP and cash‑flow rights shifts control from a distressed joint‑venture partner to Alcon, augmenting its own library and solidifying its position as a major independent rights‑holder.
For Vitrina supply‑chain clients, the move signals ripple‑effects across downstream distribution partners and opens new development pipelines for fans and franchises—indicating emerging licensing and co‑financing opportunities under Alcon’s strategic domain.
