Lantern Entertainment, LLC is an American independent film and television studio formed by Lantern Capital Partners on July 16, 2018.
The studio was formed from the acquired assets of The Weinstein Company (TWC) in a bankruptcy auction. TWC filed for bankruptcy as a result of co-founder Harvey Weinstein being convicted of sexual harassment, assault, and rape. Lantern Entertainment is a separate company unaffiliated with the Weinsteins.[3]
