TORONTO \u2013 Thunderbird Films has reached a deal with Toronto theater company Soulpepper to develop and produce TV, movies and digital media content.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
The joint venture will kick off with a feature film and TV series now in development based on\u00a0Ins\u00a0<\/strong>Choi<\/strong>‘s stage play\u00a0Kim’s Convenience<\/em>, which Soulpepper is touring in Canada. The partnership was unveiled on Tuesday by\u00a0Albert Schultz<\/strong>, artistic director of Soulpepper Theater Company, and\u00a0Tim Gamble<\/strong>, president and CEO of Thunderbird Films.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

“I look at Soulpepper and marvel at what they have created in such a short time. Their ability to spot, nurture and develop multi-disciplinary theater talent is second to none,” said Gamble, who is also in business with Lionsgate on a Sea to Sky Entertainment venture.<\/p>\n

Schultz founded Soulpepper 16 years ago, along with 11 other Canadian film, TV and stage actors. The company provides a blend of classical and contemporary stage productions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
