Merger of French Film Companies Rectangle Productions and Goodfellas
French film companies Rectangle Productions and Goodfellas have officially completed their merger, as announced on Friday.
Rectangle, known for producing the San Sebastian opener Emmanuelle and the 2021 Venice festival winner Happening, has merged with Vincent Maraval’s Goodfellas, which has managed international sales for acclaimed films such as Hayao Miyazaki’s Oscar-winning The Boy and The Heron and Francis Ford Coppola’s Megalopolis. The merger was finalized on November 4, 2024. The two companies have a history of collaboration, with Goodfellas overseeing sales for several Rectangle productions, including Emmanuelle, Valerie Donzelli’s Cannes 2023 film Just the Two of Us, and Charlene Favier’s Oxana.
The companies stated that the merger was “carried out in the interests of all stakeholders” and represents “an important milestone for these long-standing partners.”
Rectangle Productions, led by Alice Girard and Edouard Weil, will maintain its brand identity, creative autonomy, existing talent, and all current projects. In their statement, they emphasized their commitment to continue producing “ambitious films and TV series in collaboration with their usual talents and partners.”
For Goodfellas, this merger significantly enhances the company’s film and TV production capabilities while also providing a fresh source of content to support its international sales operations.
Rectangle was co-founded in 2003 by Weil, who was later joined by co-producer Alice Girard in 2012. To date, the company has produced approximately 60 feature films.
