At a time when entertainment culture is shifting, three industry veterans are answering with vision, craft, and reach.
Rileah Vanderbilt, Jennifer Muro, and Hillary Jones combine three lanes of power: viral fandom-first creation, award-winning storytelling for the biggest franchises in the world, and studio-level dealmaking and distribution. Together, we represent the full pipeline: from spark to script to screen to scale.
What makes us different is that we don’t just know the audience. We are the audience. We’ve lived in these fandoms, we’ve spoken their language, and we’ve watched them go underserved by replaceable, algorithm-chasing content. Romance is already the #1 driver of vertical engagement worldwide. Add fantasy, horror, sci-fi, and supernatural into the mix, and you have the most loyal, passionate, monetizable fan base in the short form space.
That’s what we’re building: the first branded vertical label devoted to genre-centric romance — the very stories that dominate BookTok, fan art, cosplay, and cons, but that no platform has figured out how to serve at scale. Like A24 carved out prestige in indie film, we aim to carve out prestige in vertical.
Our combined strength isn’t just experience, it’s inevitability. We’ve already proven that premium quality can thrive on micro-budgets, that fandoms will rally behind authentic voices, and that genre-romance is the next untapped frontier.
