Gulf Film Established in 1989 and focused on film distribution for major studios from around the world as well as independent English and Arabic films catering to audiences across the Middle East. Gulf Film is the distribution rights owner of more than 150 titles – that’s almost half of the films distributed in the region – Gulf Film is by far the largest film distributor in the Middle East.[2]
Gulf Film took a step forward in the year 2000 and expanded its portfolio by creating “Grand Cinemas”. Later on, in 2014 the chain of cinema was rebranded and re-inaugurated to become “Novo Cinemas”. Currently Novo Cinemas is the largest chain of theatres in the Middle East.[3] Gulf Film was acquired by Elan in 2012 (formerly known as Qatar Media Services or q.media).[4]
Gulf Film and Novo Cinemas aim to offer a comprehensive range of film and entertainment services to existing and new markets. The combination of Elan, Gulf Film and Novo Cinemas creates a regional powerhouse in entertainment that will provide the latest in film innovation and set worldwide standards in the area and beyond.[5]
Gulf Films, which is owned by Qatar Media Services, handles at least half the films released in the Middle East, including plenty of Hollywood product such as Paramount and Universal titles.
In January Gulf Films scored boffo returns from the Middle East release of Fox’s Liam Neeson-starrer “Taken 3,” which pulled in $10.3 million — the region’s ninth box office intake ever – after Neeson made the trek to Dubai for the Middle East’s first Hollywood-style fan premiere.[6]
Gulf Film is headquartered in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.[7]
History
The Grand Cinemas brand name was launched in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, in 2000. It was relaunched on May 6, 2014 as Novo Cinemas.[8]
The Grand Cinemas operation is owned by Gulf Film. Established in 1989 in the UAE, Gulf Film was acquired in 2011 by "Qatar Media Services" (q.media).[9]
On July 2005, Grand Cinemas launched the first IMAX in the Middle East at Ibn Battuta Mall Megaplex in Dubai.[10]
