About this game
Do you have what it takes to turn a small film studio into a global entertainment empire?
In Movie Business, you step into the shoes of an aspiring producer on the edge of the Dream Factory. With modest starting capital and huge ambitions, it is up to you to write film history. From the first draft of a script to the glamorous premiere, every decisive step is in your hands.
Choose the perfect script from a constantly changing market or commission your own writers to create the next masterpiece. Discover hidden gems among actors and directors or sign established but expensive stars to lead your project to success. Every artist has unique skills, preferences, and quirks that will influence your production.
But a good script and a star-studded cast are just the beginning. As a producer, you make the tough decisions: Set the budget for crew, locations, and special effects. Determine the creative focus of your film and navigate through unforeseen events during shooting – from brilliant acting performances to conflicts on set.
Once the film is in the can, the battle for the audience's attention begins. Negotiate with distributors for the best deal, plan the release, and hope that your work conquers the box office charts and wins awards at renowned film festivals.
But it’s about more than just the next movie. You will expand your own studio lot with specialized buildings, research groundbreaking new technologies, speculate on the stock market with competitors' shares, and manage your finances down to the last detail. Even your private life as CEO plays a role in your reputation and opportunities.
Face the ruthless competition, also vying for the viewers' favor, and lead your studio through the decades.
Will your name be immortalized in Hollywood's history books? The spotlight is waiting for you.
🎬 COMPREHENSIVE FILM PRODUCTION
From the first idea to the finished film – you control every aspect: script selection, casting directors and actors, budgeting for crew and equipment, setting the creative focus during production, and complete post-production.
🌟 DEEP TALENT MANAGEMENT
Discover, sign, and develop hundreds of actors and directors with unique skills, genre preferences, character traits (from "Team Player" to "Diva"), and potential. Train them, manage their morale, and watch them become legends – or box office poison.
🏦 IN-DEPTH ECONOMIC SIMULATION
Manage your finances in detail. Take out loans to bridge gaps or invest your surplus capital in the dynamic stock market by trading shares of rival studios. Detailed financial reports help you keep track.
🏗️ BUILD YOUR STUDIO EMPIRE
Expand your own studio lot! Construct and upgrade buildings like writers' bungalows, research labs, scouting offices, and even your own cinema to boost your income and unlock powerful bonuses.
🔬 RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT
Invest in a complex research tree to unlock new film genres, better production techniques, more efficient marketing methods, and the ability to produce ever-larger blockbusters (from B-Movies to AAA).
🏆 FAME, GLORY, AND FESTIVALS
Bring your masterpieces to the top of the box office charts and compete with rivals. Submit your best films to prestigious film festivals to win coveted awards, prize money, and a massive reputation boost.
🌍 A LIVING, UNPREDICTABLE WORLD
No two games are alike. A huge selection of random events – from world news and industry trends to unexpected problems on set – ensures constant challenges and unpredictable twists.
💼 MORE THAN JUST A JOB: YOUR PRIVATE LIFE
Manage your CEO's life as well. Determine your salary, invest in real estate and luxury goods, further your education, and cultivate relationships that can influence your personal reputation and career.
