Upcoming release of BONOBOS should appeal to large nature-documentary market

We received some inquiries from shareholders about the genres' of upcoming releases - including questions about the African nature film, "THE LION PRINCE" and other nature programming.  While the company is still working out the casting details for "THE LION PRINCE" for revoicing into English (the film otherwise already is shot and ready for release), we wanted to share information on another, exciting nature film that is in process.

Hannover House is working with the producers of "BONOBOS" and its French director Alain Tixier on a venture to release his amazing new film into North America.  This 2012 nature documentary from MC4 and Warner Brothers International will generate proceeds to benefit the Bonobos Rescue Center and the World Wildlife Fund;  WWF celebrity supporters include Hugh Jackman and Cate Blanchett, who - pending scheduling - may be providing the narration for the film (please note that neither of these performers is signed as of today).  If either (or both) of these designated performers ultimately is unavailable to participate in this project, we're told that other WWF celebrity supporters are likely to support the venture.  Below is teaser artwork. The HHSE plan is to release the film to V.O.D., DVD and Blu-Ray on March 4, 2014 - with placements into Walmart, Sams, Costco, Redbox, Netflix and other key accounts (as well as wide "On-Demand" VOD placement, including VODwiz.com). 

Stay tuned....!
