But we own the shows, they’re ours. We’ve got the ability to do it ourselves as well. We’ve got our own production capability. We’ve got a great team here in Denver that’s built out a full-fledged production team. We’ve got a great studio in Atlanta that’s doing a lot of shows for us. So we feel really good about our production capability. We’ve got a great relationship with Lionsgate, but we have the ability to do it ourselves as well. And we’re excited about the future of the production capability that we have.
How does the separation from Lionsgate impact your programming strategy?
It doesn’t really impact our programming strategy at all. We’ve always been independent. We’ve always had our own programming strategy. We’ve always had our own focus on what we want to do. We’ve always had our own focus on the consumer. And so that doesn’t really change. What it does is it allows us to really hone in on what we do well. It allows us to really focus on what we do well. It allows us to really focus on the consumer. It allows us to really focus on the content and that’s really what we’re excited about. That’s really what we’re excited about is the future of the company. We’re really excited about the future of the brand. We’re really excited about the future of the consumer. We’re really excited about the future of the content. And so that’s really what we’re excited about. And that’s really what we’re focused on.
How will the “We’re All Adults Here” marketing campaign help shape the Starz brand?

It really is about focusing on what we do well. And so that’s really what we’re excited about. That’s really what we’re focused on. And that’s really what we’re excited about. And that’s really what we’re focused on. And that’s really what we’re excited about. And that’s really what we’re focused on. And that’s really what we’re excited about. And that’s really what we’re focused on. And that’s really what we’re excited about. And that’s really what we’re focused on.
As Starz embarks on this new chapter as an independent entity, the future looks bright for the premium channel. With a focus on diverse programming and a strong subscriber base, Starz is poised for continued growth and success in the ever-evolving entertainment landscape. CEO Jeffrey Hirsch’s vision for the company’s future is clear, and with a solid financial foundation and a robust content pipeline, Starz is ready to shine brightly in its own orbit. We’ve been able to leverage Lionsgate’s content library and production capabilities to expand our original programming offerings. And now, with the recent announcement of our new origin story series, “Origins,” we continue to push the boundaries of storytelling and entertainment.
Our partnership with Sony has also been fruitful, as we have announced the prequel to “Outlander,” set to premiere in August. This new series promises to be as spectacular as anything on TV this summer, taking viewers back to Scotland for another thrilling adventure.
But we’re not stopping there. We have more exciting projects in the works, such as “Fightland,” a U.K. boxing show developed in collaboration with “Power” executive producer 50 Cent. We are constantly on the lookout for fresh, innovative content that will captivate audiences and push the boundaries of storytelling.
In terms of our content spending, we are confident in our current financial portfolio and believe we have the right amount allocated to maintain our profit margins. We are open to potential acquisitions that align with our programming mandate, and we see opportunities to expand our ad-supported revenue base while complementing our subscription business.
As we look to the future, we remain committed to our bold, envelope-pushing programming that sets us apart from other networks. Our “We’re All Adults Here” branding campaign encapsulates our unapologetic, daring approach to storytelling, and we will continue to amplify this message as we move forward.
With Lionsgate as our partner, we have been able to elevate our programming offerings and expand our reach. We are excited about the future and the possibilities that lie ahead. We are fully open for business and eager to hear new pitches from development executives and agents. Bring us your ideas, and together, we will continue to push the boundaries of entertainment and storytelling. Lionsgate TV has been a valuable partner in our journey to produce television and movies. Their expertise and resources have greatly impacted our business, allowing us to access a wide range of content to entertain our audiences. As the industry evolved, we diversified our lines of business to stay competitive and continue growing as a public entity. However, now that we have separated from Lionsgate, we see new opportunities to expand our reach and cater to underrepresented audiences, particularly women.
In the ever-changing landscape of the entertainment industry, it is crucial to adapt and innovate. With our newfound independence, we can now focus on scaling our business around the specific needs and interests of women and other marginalized groups. This is something that may have been challenging to achieve as a subsidiary of a major studio like Lionsgate.
By honing in on these underserved demographics, we can create content that resonates with a wider audience and reflects the diversity of our society. This shift in focus not only allows us to stay relevant in a rapidly changing market but also enables us to make a meaningful impact by representing voices that have long been underrepresented in mainstream media.
Moving forward, we are excited about the possibilities that lie ahead. We are eager to explore new creative avenues, collaborate with talented artists, and continue pushing boundaries to create compelling and inclusive content. Our journey as an independent entity has just begun, and we are determined to make a lasting impression in the world of television and film.
In conclusion, while our partnership with Lionsgate has been invaluable, we are now embarking on a new chapter filled with endless possibilities. By focusing on women and underrepresented audiences, we are confident that we can make a significant impact and carve out a unique space in the industry. Stay tuned for what’s to come as we continue to evolve and grow in this ever-changing landscape.
