The company believes entertainment should affirm life&#039;s positivity and reinforce messages of selfless giving, elevating stories of compassion, heroism and optimism. Cantinas aims to spark a sense of hope in audiences around the globe.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe company has a co-production and financing deal with Mike Medavoy, formerly of Phoenix Pictures, and his new company. There is also a pact with Doug McKay and Robert Kaplan of Rubicon Entertainment, who are producing a film for Cantinas based on Brenda Spahn&#039;s book <em>Miss Brenda and the Loveladies: A Heartwarming True Story of Grace, God and Gumption<\/em>. Also in development is a feature film adaptation of <em>Redeeming Love<\/em> by best-selling author Francine Rivers.<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&quot;By offering inspirational stories of hope and positive values, Cantinas believes in entertainment with integrity, stories that inspire, and relatable messages that reinforce faith and address universal themes,&quot; said Wendy Hughes. &quot;Our commitment is to deliver that to audiences through a multiplatform approach in film and television.&quot;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LOS ANGELES: Cantinas Entertainment has been launched with the intention of developing, financing, producing and distributing &quot;uplifting&quot; entertainment across multiple platforms.
