Amazon MGM Studios & IFC Vet Mark Boxer To Lead Mubi U.S. Distribution Ops – Cannes
Mubi has named former Amazon MGM Studios Distribution Head Mark Boxer as their U.S. Head of Distribution as Cannes gets underway.
Mubi’s upcoming slate, which Boxer will oversee, includes Coralie Fargeat’s Cannes Film Festival title The Substance starring Demi Moore and Margaret Qualley, which the distrib snapped up ahead of the fest; its biggest US acquisition to date after a bidding war. Boxer recently spent six years at Amazon Studios as Head of Theatrical Distribution, where he worked on award-winning campaigns for films including Cold War, Sound of Metal, Being the Ricardos, Saltburn, The Boys in the Boat and American Fiction. Boxer was also integral in implementing IFC’s theatrical day-and-date PVOD strategy, making them one of the first arthouse distributors to execute a dynamic film business model which many major motion picture studios adapted during the pandemic.
