StudioCanal Launches Classics Label, Touting 18,000-Title Global Library and Major 4K Restoration Effort

Canal+’s StudioCanal announced the global launch of StudioCanal Classics, a label dedicated to its extensive film library of over 18,000 titles, which it calls the largest outside the U.S. The company has invested roughly $29 million over seven years to restore nearly 1,000 classic films in 4K, with restorations like Michael Mann's 'Manhunter' hitting theaters. The label aims to bring restored classics to new audiences through festivals, theatrical releases, and tailored distribution across multiple markets.
