Financial Change for Relativity

  • Post author:

 
You’re just in time for this week’s edition of The Kavanaugh hour! In this week’s episode, Relativity has a new financial plan yet again, Kavanaugh has finally spoken to the public outright and Jane Got a Gun has still yet to be Jane Got Finally Released.

The Toronto based Catalyst Capital, of which decided to take on Relativity’s huge debts, has now been bought out by Anchorage Capital (a New York firm), and are now in charge of the bulk of Relativity’s relatively large senior debts. Relativity are still in hot water, with many films’ futures uncertain (Jane Got A Gun, for instance), and without many things to say to the public, we weren’t sure what CEO Ryan Kavanaugh was intending for the future.

We knew the Natalie Portman western Jane Got A Gun was somehow going to be affected by Relativity’s uncertain circumstances. It appears that the Toronto based Catalyst Capital Group may not have officially signed on to help Relativity and that the news was merely a supposed report. With that in mind, who knows how much steadier things will be with Relativity and its staff.

It also doesn’t help that Kavanaugh and co. have missed their deadline. Investors gave Relativity an extension deadline for the company to get its act together. That time has just passed, and other investors are becoming weary of these repeating cycles with Kavanaugh. Reportedly, a wealthy investor even considered helping Relativity out just recently, only to jump ship after seeing the history of the company in depth.
