UK Distributor-Producer Signature Entertainment Acquires Latin American Outfit Particular Crowd

UK distributor-producer Signature Entertainment has set plans to acquire Latin American production and distribution company Particular Crowd. 

Based in Los Angeles and Buenos Aires, Particular Crowd is best known for recent releases La Extorsión and Casi Muerta. Both films are available locally on Max under the company’s volume deal with Warner Bros. Discovery. Upcoming projects from the company include Brazil’s Evidências Do Amor, which will be released theatrically this month by Warner Bros., and Aztec Batman: Clash Of Empires, an original Warner Bros. Animation feature that places the iconic DC superhero against the backdrop of the captivating history of Mexico.

Signature and Particular Crowd have collaborated on films in the past, including Paul Andrew Williams’s Bull. Peter Bevan, Head of Particular Crowd, will join the Signature senior management team as President of Global Strategy and Distribution. 

“I’ve long admired how Marc and the team at Signature have developed their business to become market leaders,” said Bevan. “Our ambitions are aligned, and our collective strength will enable us to unlock huge potential in Latin America and beyond as we expand our slate of elevated content.”

Founder and CEO of Signature, Marc Goldberg, added: “We are delighted to welcome Peter and his expert team to the Signature family. Having worked together on some of our early Signature Films productions, we quickly recognized Particular Crowd as a distributor that had similar intentions, and we were thrilled to agree a deal to acquire the company. Peter has joined Signature at the perfect moment, and we see him leading the charge as we look to grow further globally, beyond our core UK footprint.”
