Maraval

Co-Founder / Chief Content Officer

Maraval made waves in the film community when he announced that he had tapped Johnny Depp, who had been virtually uncastable in Hollywood since 2018 following abuse allegations by ex-wife Amber Heard, to play King Louis XV in “Jeanne du Barry” for his production company. Directed by and starring the mononymous Maïwenn, who co-wrote the script with Teddy Lussi-Modeste, the French-language film is set to stream on Netflix following a theatrical release in France. The movie is one of many in Maraval’s growing stable of Wild Bunch titles, alongside 2022 releases such as Gaspar Noé’s “Vortex,” Dario Argento’s “Dark Glasses,” Claire Denis’ “Stars at Noon” and Ali Abbasi’s “Holy Spider. He’s been expanding its output via two new companies, the French genre film prodco Wild West and the animation sales company Gebeka International.
