Fresh off the success of “Road House,” which premiered on Amazon Prime Video and garnered over 50 million viewers worldwide since its March 21 release, Nine Stories has established itself as a creative force in the industry. Gyllenhaal, known for his versatile performances in acclaimed films such as “Brokeback Mountain” and “Prisoners,” founded Nine Stories alongside Riva Marker in 2015.
The production house has delivered a diverse range of compelling projects, including Antoine Fuqua’s “The Guilty” and Paul Dano’s directorial debut, “Wildlife.” With a track record of collaborating on impactful films, Gyllenhaal and Nine Stories are poised to bring their distinctive storytelling vision to Amazon MGM Studios.
Julie Rapaport, head of film production and development at Amazon MGM Studios, expressed enthusiasm for the partnership, praising Gyllenhaal’s talent and dedication to filmmaking. Gyllenhaal reciprocated the sentiment, highlighting Amazon MGM’s commitment to the craft and their shared success on previous projects.
As Amazon MGM Studios continues to expand its footprint in the entertainment industry, this strategic alliance with Nine Stories underscores its commitment to fostering innovative storytelling and delivering compelling content to audiences worldwide.
