Spain’s Lightbox, producer of the “Tadeo” franchise and “Capture the Flag,” is teaming with Austria’s Arx Anima (“Talking Tom and Friends”) to create Arxlight.
A joint venture, the partnership aims to produce an animation feature every two-and-a-half years with an around €10 million ($12.1 million) budget.
First fruit of the joint venture, animated feature “Monstrous Mia” marks the sophomore directorial effort of Verena Fels (“Raven the Little Rascal – Hunt for the Lost Treasure”).
Arx Anima has had a longterm Spanish connection with almost half of its workforce at its Vienna studio being of Spanish origin. Gustavo Liévano has been running its business development operation from Spain for many years. “We thought it would be a great idea to partner up and form Arxlight Pictures in order to create the best possible European co-production projects,” Arx Anima CEO Kris Staber told Variety.

A “Duke Nukem” movie is in the works with Gearbox Software teaming with “Assassin’s Creed” producer Jean-Julien Baronnet to adapt the video game into a feature film, Variety has learned exclusively.
Gearbox had been working on “Duke Nukem” with Paramount Studios and Michael Bay’s Platinum Dunes, with John Cena rumored as a possible star earlier this year. Paramount, however, is no longer involved in the project.
Duke Nukem first appeared in the 1991 eponymous video game, developed by Apogee Software, as a muscular cigar-chomping man who always wears Ray-Bans and sports a flat-top haircut as he fights aliens to save planet Earth by using enormous physical strength and his expertise in firearms. He’s appeared in 19 video games as the title character, most recently in “Duke Nukem 3D: World Tour.”
Gearbox’s Sean Haren, the company’s vice president of business development, and Baronnet from Marla Studios have been...
