LOS ANGELES: Open Road Films has inked a deal to market and sell XLrator Media titles to pay- and free-TV outlets, as well as certain SVOD carriers.

The XLrator-Open Road partnership will provide access to a wide-lane for our top-quality, elevated genre films and programs to larger sales channels and new audiences."
