Angelic Pictures announces:
NEW DISRUPTOR ENTERS: 3 Finalists for Exclusive Technology Partnership
PARTNERSHIP STATUS UPDATE:
A new player has entered the competition. We now have 3 finalists competing for exclusive technology positioning in Space Samurai:
- Apple (6-movie relationship – evolving to Brand Partner status)
- Trump Phone (Made in USA – commitment)
- Pi Phone (NEW DISRUPTOR – advanced technology focus)
HOW HOLLYWOOD PRODUCT PLACEMENT WORKS:

Recent industry success validates our approach. Apple’s F1 movie with Brad Pitt just brought in $40 million in product placement revenue – covering a significant portion of the $300 million production budget.
Key insights from F1’s success:
- Brad Pitt wore fire suits and helmets with more than a dozen brand logos
- Brands including Mercedes, IWC, Geico, and EA Sports paid millions for the privilege
- Product placement segments cost $250,000 to $1 million for 3-4 seconds of clear and identifiable exposure
- Unlike Marvel movies, corporate branding adds authenticity rather than distraction
- Producer David Liner brought in more sponsor money for F1 than any film in his career
COMPETITION INTENSIFIES:
Apple, Trump Phone, and Pi Phone are all pursuing the same exclusive technology positioning. Only one brand can secure exclusive rights across phones, tablets, and all digital hardware technology.
WHAT THIS MEANS:
Technology category exclusivity will be decided soon. The winning partner gets:
- Opening credit and Title Sponsorship as “Produced by”
- Exclusive technology positioning in all scenes (approximately most of the movie)
- Product integration across the entire trilogy
- The ability to use and feature the movie in commercials using their own products (commercial back marketing)
- Authentic brand integration that enhances the story – viewers expect technology sponsorship in space movies
- No existing competitors – unlike F1, we don’t have existing technology partners to avoid
OTHER OPPORTUNITIES:
While technology exclusivity is nearly secured, other categories remain available:
- Automotive
- Aerospace
- Consumer goods
- Hospitality
- Financial services
PRODUCTION TIMELINE:
Shooting begins Summer 2025. All partnerships must be finalized (signed and funded) before production starts.
