Rights to comedy Gary The Tennis Coach starring Seann William Scott went to Luxor in Russia, Sandrew Metronome in Scandinavia, Village Roadshow in Greece, D Productions in Turkey, Castelo Lopes in Portugal, Blitz in Indonesia, Pioneer in the Philippines, and Blue Sky Media in Eastern Europe. Optimum previously acquired UK rights.

The thriller Unknown will be released by Force in Australia, Alfa in Argentina, Ascot Elite in Germany, and Blanco & Travieso in Venezuela.
