Alcon Entertainment

Alcon Entertainment strives to consistently and profitably entertain a worldwide audience while exploring new ways to innovatively finance.

The Company was born out of a business plan written by co-founders and co-CEOs Broderick Johnson and Andrew Kosove for FEDEX Founder, Chairman and CEO Frederick W. Smith, who ultimately agreed to personally finance the Company, which was officially incorporated in January of 1997. To this day, that plan's fundamental concept remains the core principal of Alcon's business philosophy in that the Company integrates the optimal incentives and fiscal accountability of independent filmmaking with the principal assets of a major studio alliance. Alcon is an independent film company in the truest sense given that the Company secures its financial resources independently, thus enabling it to focus on and produce economical, cost-effective content, while offering filmmakers and creative talent a streamlined, non-bureaucratic environment in which to work. Early in its history, Alcon established a long-term distribution arrangement with Warner Bros. Under the terms of the deal, Warner Bros distributes the films Alcon finances and produces while the two companies work closely in the marketing of the films.
