Pacific Palisades, CA / ACCESSWIRE / June 9, 2014 / What started
out as a single title acquisition agreement at the Cannes Film
Festival, has since grown into a six-picture distribution pact
between Paseo Miramar Studios and Hannover House, Inc. (OTC: HHSE),
the company announced today. The action-thriller, “American
Justice” will lead a slate of new productions that Hannover House
will represent for distribution into all applicable media in North
America. Six initial titles from Paseo Miramar are expected over
the first eighteen months of the agreement, with annual options to
continue the venture indefinitely. Hannover House is a leading
U.S.A. producer and distributor of independent films, books and
entertainment products.
“American Justice” is a non-stop action-thriller that will hit
video sell-thru and rental shelves this fall from Hannover House.
Action star Tommy “Tiny” Lister (“Next Friday”, “The Fifth
Element”) portrays an L.A. police officer who finds himself as the
fall-guy in a web of small town corruption lead by a redneck
sheriff, played by an engagingly sinister John Schneider (“The
Dukes of Hazzard”). James Russo (“DJango Unchained”, “Donnie
Brasco”) portrays FBI Special Agent Cobb. The film was shot in and
around Prague, Oklahoma, and features an abundance of shoot-outs,
car chases and explosions throughout the film.

“American Justice” is a 2014 production written by Jerry Bryant,
Tommy Lister and Demetrius Navarro, and directed by Navarro.
Producers are Bryant and Navarro along with Enrico Natale and
Dustin Willy Wilson. Production services were provided by Icon
Studios (Dallas) under contract to Paseo Miramar. The multi-title
distribution pact was initiated at the recent Cannes Film Festival
and Marche du Film, and the final agreement was negotiated by Fred
Shefte, on behalf of Hannover House, with Edwin Licona and Jerry
Bryant on behalf of Paseo Miramar Studios.
Under the terms of the multi-picture pact with Hannover House,
Paseo Miramar will deliver between four and six new productions
during the initial eighteen months, all of which will be
distributed in the USA and Canada by Hannover House. The slate of
current and planned productions is impressive and commercial.
“We are very excited to be working with Jerry Bryant, Edwin
Licona and the entire Paseo Miramar team,” said Fred Shefte,
President of Hannover House. “There was a lot of interest at Cannes
in ‘American Justice’ and the other Paseo Miramar projects they
were presenting. As we described our new Hannover House – Medallion
Releasing strategy to them, the dialogue began to move away from a
single title venture into a long-term affiliation between our
companies. Paseo Miramar will be the first of several key
programming suppliers that will be providing release continuity for
the enhanced distribution activities that Hannover House is
implementing with our new V.P. of Sales, Tom Sims.”
Hannover House will be pursuing major retail sell-thru and
rental accounts for the Q3 release of “American Justice,” including
Walmart, Redbox, Best Buy and Netflix. The film’s release will be
supported with a major consumer campaign including targeted
advertising, internet banners and social media. Hannover House
feels that “American Justice” appeals to a broad marketplace of
movie consumers as well as to the large, core audience for
urban-action films.
Existing, key retail accounts for Hannover House consumer
packaged products include Walmart Stores, Inc., Redbox, Netflix,
Barnes & Noble and thousands of independent video retailers,
schools, libraries and booksellers. The company also sells
entertainment products to a wide range of internet sites, and
services most major video-on-demand portals. The company has been
profitable for each of the past eighteen quarters, and feels that
the 2014 and 2015 new activities will significantly increase both
revenues and bottom line results. Hannover House stock is currently
traded on the OTC Markets under ticker symbol: HHSE.
