EXCLUSIVE: Angel Studios — the producer and distributor of the equity-crowdfunded, faith-based series The Chosen, which has done major business both online and in movie theaters — has today announced its launch of a theatrical division, as well as its appointment of Brandon Purdie as Vice President of Theatrical Distribution.
Purdie joins Angel’s Global Distribution team headed up by SVP Jared Geesey, with plans to help the company continue to disrupt the typical film model by carving out its own network direct to theaters.
He comes to Angel Studios with nearly 15 years’ experience running his own distribution outfit, Purdie Distribution, which has overseen the release of titles like the Jason Momoa-narrated documentary Waterman on five-time Olympic medalist Duke Paoa Kahanamoku.
A community-driven movie studio in the vein of Legion M allowing creators to pitch projects on its Angel platform, with “Angel investors” then being able to fund those they’re most passionate about, Angel Studios is best known for its hugely popular episodic series The Chosen — the most heavily backed, crowdfunded series in history, which for its first season collected $10M+ from over 16,000 investors.
