In just seven years we&rsquo;ve established ourselves as one of the most prolific feature film players outside of the major studios in Hollywood, and in partnership with Mark I look forward to us now becoming a recognized force in the fast-evolving global television arena.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>\n\tStern added, &ldquo;With their impressive feature-film track-record, muscular financial backing, strong international relationships, and innovative entrepreneurial spirit, Stuart Ford and his team at IM Global are the perfect partners. I couldn&#039;t be more excited to bring everything I&#039;ve learned as a producer, network and studio executive to this new venture.
