CineCoup Media is a disruptive studio for independent creators to develop, market and finance their original film and television projects. In 2013, the CineCoup Film Accelerator optioned ten projects for development and greenlit its first feature film WolfCop by guaranteeing a minimum $1M production financing and a Canadian theatrical release at Cineplex. The WolfCop filmmakers delivered the goods and worked with CineCoup to unleash a killer marketing campaign. To date WolfCop has secured distribution 15+ territories while greenlighting a sequel. In fall 2014, CineCoup Media is teaming up with its ComedyCoup partners to offer comedy creators development and production opportunities for their original show concepts for broadcast. CineCoup Media is the brainchild of media entrepreneur, J. Joly.
