FOX ENTERTAINMENT'S MARVISTA ENTERTAINMENT UNVEILS TIDELINE, THE STUDIO'S NEW PRODUCTION LABEL

New Shingle Formed to Develop and Produce Diverse Slate of Cross-Platform Content from Unique and Differentiated Creators and Voices

Ponyboi, First New Title Released Under Tideline Banner, Is Set to Debut in the Sundance Film Festival Drama Competition on January 20th.

FOX Entertainment and its prolific global in-house studio division MarVista Entertainment today announce the formation of Tideline Entertainment. The new production label will focus on creating impactful and meaningful content with unique perspectives from differentiated storytellers, voices and creators worldwide.

Under the leadership of Hannah Pillemer, MarVista's Executive Vice President and Head of Creative & Production, Tideline projects will range from features and independent films to limited series, made-for-platform content and other cross-genre formats based on what best supports the creative vision of each story and storyteller.

The first new project under the Tideline banner will be Ponyboi, the first and only movie to explore the experiences of an intersex character in a project written, produced and starring intersex talent. Set to debut on January 20th in the prestigious Sundance Film Festival's Drama Competition, River Gallo's Ponyboi follows a young intersex sex worker forced to confront their past while running from the mob after a drug deal goes sideways.

"The tideline is the mark left by the tide when it reaches its highest point. We envision the Tideline banner to be synonymous with the most impactful genre storytelling and the home for creators to be their authentic selves as they share their stories with the world," said Pillemer. "Under this vision, Tideline is already supporting exciting and important projects, starting with River Gallo's tremendous film Ponyboi."

"I have always believed that we must continue to build and evolve as a studio and storytellers, and now, as we celebrate MarVista's 20th anniversary and our second year as a part of the FOX Entertainment family, our growth story continues," said Fernando Szew, CEO of MarVista Entertainment and FOX Entertainment Global. "Today we are proud to establish Tideline as our new in-house production unit, allowing us to emphatically broaden the stories we will bring to the world"

In addition to Ponyboi, the first titles to bear the Tideline label are 2023's comedy First Time Female Director, which made its debut at the Tribeca Film Festival and was directed, written and stars Chelsea Peretti (Brooklyn Nine-Nine, New Girl) in her actual directorial debut and produced by Amy Poehler's Paper Kite Productions, as well as three more upcoming films from first time female directors: satirical thriller Slanted by director Amy Wang (From Scratch, Crazy Rich Asians 2) , the action comedy The BM from director Rachel Goldberg (Resident Evil, American Gods), and the coming of age story Hurricane Summer, directed by Lacey Duke (Queen Sugar).

First Time Female Director is about a woman who must fill the shoes of her problematic predecessor to avoid putting her play in jeopardy, while upcoming Slanted is about an Asian American high schooler so desperate to be prom queen that she undergoes radical treatment to change her racial identity; The BM, follows a young woman whose desperate search for a bathroom gets her inadvertently caught up in a bizarre heist across Los Angeles; and adapted by the best-selling book, Hurricane Summer tells the story of Tilla, a Jamaican-Canadian woman who experiences growth and devastation the summer she turns 18.
