Lee’s prolific output continues unabated, with recent efforts for his Vertigo Entertainment banner including 2021 pandemic-breaker “Godzilla vs. Kong,” Amazon horror series “Them,” a Paramount+ miniseries adaptation of Stephen King’s “The Stand,” plus upcoming horror-thrillers “Cobweb” and “Don’t Worry Darling.” Lee has produced multiple movie franchises, from scare fests (“The Ring,” “The Grudge”) to animated fantasies (“How to Train Your Dragon,” “The Lego Movie”).

In 2020, he teamed with Steven Schneider to form genre label Spooky Pictures, which makes its debut with Chloe Okuno’s “Watcher” amid a multi-picture slate deal with Image Nation Abu Dhabi.
