Addie Morfoot ContributorRory Kennedy and Mark Bailey’s Moxie Films has partnered with Imagine Documentaries to develop and co-produce a slate of new nonfiction fare.The partnership with the nonfiction division of Brian Grazer and Ron Howard’s Imagine Entertainment and Moxie Films is a multi-year agreement.Headed by Sara Bernstein and Justin Wilkes, Imagine Documentaries recently co-produced Kennedy’s “Downfall: The Case Against Boeing,” which Bailey wrote and produced.
The Netflix docu, which debuted at the Sundance Film Festival in January, is an investigation of two Boeing 737 Max crashes that occurred within five months of each other in 2018 and 2019 that killed a combined 346 people.
Netflix began streaming the docu on Feb. 18. Kennedy and Bailey will develop and produce projects with the full resources of the label, which currently has its own first-look output deal with Apple TV Plus and a multi-picture arrangement with Imax for large-format content.“This partnership enables Moxie Film to plug into our infrastructure,” says Wilkes. “That includes everything from physical production, development, creative resources and financial resources.
We are actively investing and, in some cases, fully financing or co-financing projects. What that enables us to pass along to our filmmaking partners is the ability to start getting stuff made and not necessarily having to wait for a green light.”Kennedy and Bailey, who are married, will also be able rely on Imagine for day to day production management.“We are interested in expanding and being able to do more projects, but don’t want to be in a position of overseeing a big company and ultimately spend a lot of time managing,” says Kennedy.
