Deadline understands that Sony will keep the Stolen Picture brand and creative IP alive within its family of labels, but is liquidating the legal entity. No employees are impacted.

Sony took full control of Stolen Picture in 2022 after originally buying into the outfit in 2017. As part of the 2022 deal, Pegg and Frost resigned as directors and have since stepped away from day-to-day operations.

The brand "Stolen Picture" hasn't put out a project since 2020 and it didn't include either of those projects.

I'm not sure what they brought or what value it has.

It made Truth Seekers on Amazon which was rubbish, and Slaughterhouse Rulez which I saw and can't remember at all.

I can only assume Sony bought it because it was cheap.
