China’s Huahua Media and Shanghai Film Group have made a significant investment in “Jack Reacher: Never Go Back,” Paramount Pictures announced Friday.
Additionally, the companies will partner to serve as the lead marketing partner on the Tom Cruise action movie’s China release.
Huahua has been very helpful to Paramount recently. The company released studio tentpole “Star Trek Beyond” in China earlier this month, where the film generated $62 million at the box office since its Sept. 2 debut. Huahua was also one of Paramount’s Chinese marketing partners for Michael Bay‘s “Transformers: Age of Extinction” — the first film to ever cross the $300 million box office mark in China.
