Hyperobject Industries was founded in October 2019, by director, producer, screenwriter, and comedian Adam McKay.[1] McKay created the company after leaving Gary Sanchez Productions in April 2019, a production company he co-founded with Will Ferrell in 2006.[2] In October 2019, the company entered an exclusive five-year first-look television deal with Home Box Office, Inc., developing content for HBO and its on demand streaming service, HBO Max.[1]

In November 2019, the company entered a first-look feature film deal with Paramount Pictures.[3] Also in November 2019, Hyperobject Industries formed a multi-year agreement, joint venture with Adam Davidson, Laura Mayer, and Sony Music Entertainment to create Three Uncanny Four Productions, a podcasting company.[4] Hyperobject Industries and the joint venture's partnership will create, develop, produce, and distribute original podcasts.[4]

In July 2021, the company entered an exclusive multi-year first-look production deal, specifically scripted feature films, with Apple Inc.[5]

In December 2021, the company's debut film, Don't Look Up, began its limited theatrical release on December 10, 2021, and begin streaming on Netflix on December 24, 2021.[6] The film became the second most-watched film on Netflix within 28 days of release.[7]

Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ Limited theatrical release, currently the second most-watched film on Netflix within 28 days of release.
  2. ^ While the series premiered in 2018, it was only since second season in 2019 that McKay separated from Gary Sanchez Productions that Hyperobject Industries got added as a production company in closing logos. Thereby, also making it the first ever credit for this venture across any medium even as McKay continues to be credited alongside his Gary Sanchez partner Will Ferrell in a single card as an executive producer.
