Magnolia Pictures LLC is a U.S.-based independent film distributor and production entity, functioning as a subsidiary under 2929 Entertainment, owned by Mark Cuban and Todd Wagner. Established in 2001 by Bill Banowsky and Eamonn Bowles, Magnolia primarily focuses on independent and international cinema. Through its Magnet Releasing label, the company handles distribution of selected titles, especially those within the foreign and genre film categories. In April 2011, Cuban mentioned the possibility of divesting Magnolia, but only if presented with an exceptionally attractive proposal.
The company's international sales division, Magnify—previously known as Magnolia Pictures International—concentrates on investing in early-stage projects to broaden Magnolia's footprint in global markets.
