About
Based in Melbourne, Australia, and established in 1996, Madman Entertainment Pty Ltd operates as a film distribution and production and rights management company that offers its products to sales channels throughout Australia and New Zealand. The company was founded by Tim Anderson and Paul Wiegard. Funtastic Limited brought the company in 2006, but decided to sell in 2014 and was brought back by Anderson and Weigard. Madman Entertainment was acquired by Five V Capital and in February 2019 Madman sold its Madman anime arm to Aniplex, an anime business owned by Sony.
The company offers home entertainment products such as anime, films, manga, cartoons, television (TV), and sports. On the other hand, Madman specializes in the wholesale distribution of DVD and BLU RAY products. Madman Entertainment also offers other rights management activities including theatrical distribution, licensing for television, video-on-demand, and merchandise.
