Corus Entertainment made a move to up its content game today by taking a majority stake in Aircraft Pictures Limited, founded in 2005 by Canadian producing team Anthony Leo and Andrew Rosen. The deal brings more kids and family-focused entertainment content to Corus.

“Bringing Aircraft Pictures’ demonstrated creative capabilities and entrepreneurial talents into the Corus orbit will help to accelerate our strategy of expanding our global content business,” said Colin Bohm, EVP of Content & Corporate Strategy, Corus Entertainment. “We are thrilled to be in business with two of the most respected producers in the industry.”

Once completed Corus says Aircraft Pictures will fold into their Nelvana brand.
