VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / February 25, 2019 / The Wonderfilm Media Corporation (WNDR.V), (OTC PINK: WDRFF), (25Y.F), ("Wonderfilm" or "Company"), a technology, media and entertainment company, is pleased to recognize and congratulate our newest producing partners and Oscar winning duo, Shaun Redick & Yvette Yates Redick on their success of ‘BlacKkKlansman', which garnered the Best Adapted Screenplay Oscar at the 91st Academy Awards held on February 24, 2019. The award further solidifies Shaun & Yvette as industry leading producers whom are able to develop story ideas into silver screen successes. BlacKkKlansman's Oscar win and nominations are tremendous follow-ups for Shaun and Yvette as their feature film, ‘Get Out', won the Academy Award for Best Screenplay at last year's award ceremony.
Shaun & Yvette's company, Impossible Dream Entertainment ("iDream Ent."), packaged and produced ‘BlacKkKlansman', while the film was directed by the iconic and celebrated Spike Lee. This feature has currently surpassed a worldwide theatrical gross of approximately $90,000,000 USD. iDream Ent's 2017 feature, ‘Get Out', directed by filmmaker Jordan Peele for Universal Pictures, achieved an amazing worldwide theatrical gross of $255,000,000 USD.
"Shaun and Yvette have an exceptional eye for identifying exciting content and being able to transform those ideas into award winning, high grossing movies," said Kirk Shaw, CEO of Wonderfilm. "In BlacKkKlansman's case, the production duo optioned the book and oversaw development of the story into a screenplay alongside the director Spike Lee. It truly takes unique talent and rare skill to recognize an idea's potential and further guide it through the process of becoming a feature film that gains multiple Oscar nominations. This year's Oscar nod further demonstrates what I've known for years, that few producers match Shaun and Yvette's creative and business acumen. Everyone at Wonderfilm looks forward to working with Shaun and Yvette this year on our combined movie slate."

Kirk Shaw, CEO of Wonderfilm, "When we originally designed Wonderfilm as an umbrella for other Producers to join, we envisioned this level of content creators. Shaun Redick, Dan Grodnik and I have known each other for many years so it's personally and professionally marvelous to have both of them join the Wonderfilm team as our resident Producers and collaborators. Shaun and Yvette bring a demonstrated talent for successfully taking the kernel of an idea and then translating it into award-winning, globally successful feature films. For Wonderfilm this partnership immediately broadens our current slate and early development pipeline of films, which approximates ~250 million USD, while adding theatrical feature film releasing to the expanding Wonderfilm business model.
Shaun Redick, "We are very excited to work with Kirk, Dan and Wonderfilm. We look forward to blending iDream Entertainment's creative and development slate with Wonderfilm's production and financing strengths to release films that both send a message and continue to find mass public appeal. Our goals are aligned to expand into a studio partnership and worldwide distribution and be a one stop shop".
Dan Grodnik said, "Shaun and Yvette have proven they are in a league of their own, we are thrilled to have them join the Wonderfilm team. The business of content creation and IP ownership is changing and the term "Independent Producer" is fast becoming an antiquated label in favor of interdependent producers who share experience, projects, relationships and resources. This is the foundation on which Wonderfilm was created.
Producer Yvette Yates Redick oversees the company's mandate for diversity and serves on advisory boards of organizations aimed at inclusion. Said Yvette, "We love what we do, and it's reflected in our storytelling that brings women and people of color to the forefront in all capacities. It's an exciting time, and Impossible Dream Entertainment, along with Wonderfilm, are going to be raising the stakes."
