It is one of the most powerful partnerships in the film industry but Steven Spielberg’s DreamWorks Studios is set to end its distribution partnership with Disney.
The studio of the award-winning filmmaker currently distributes and markets its movies through The Walt Disney Company, but this will stop in August 2016.
According to Variety, DreamWorks is likely to do a deal with Universal instead.
Disney has distributed DreamWorks’ productions since 2009 and it’s thought Spielberg’s adaptation of Roald Dahl’s ‘The BFG’ – which is set for release in July 2016 – will be the final film to be released under the deal.
Wonder if Banky’s ‘Dismaland’ had anything to do with it?
