Entertainment One, also known as eOne and Lionsgate Canada, is a privately owned multinational entertainment studio headquartered in Canada, operating as part of Lionsgate. Founded in 1970 with approximately 1100 employees, the company specializes in content rights, encompassing global acquisition, production, and distribution across film and television. Its historical operations, which included a transition into a multi-sector media giant, saw its extensive non-kids entertainment assets sold to Lionsgate in late 2023 for approximately $375 million, following a 2019 acquisition by American toy manufacturer Hasbro. Operating within its restructured framework under Lionsgate Studios, the company manages an extensive library of intellectual properties (IP), including Rookie Blue, Yellowjackets, The Rookie, Designated Survivor, and Cardinal.
On May 28, 2026, the sequel to the cinematic adaptation of Alvin Schwartz’s *Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark* remained stalled, with director André Øvredal noting it was stuck in copyright ownership limbo more than six years after its initial announcement with producer Guillermo del Toro. Earlier in February 2026, the preschool series *Peppa Pig* introduced a new storyline where the character George Pig was diagnosed as moderately deaf and began wearing a hearing aid. This inclusive plotline, developed with community input, portrays George using a device to help his condition. This followed reports on February 4, 2026, anticipating a significant change to the show as George would face a life-changing health diagnosis in new episodes, with the specific diagnosis and use of a hearing aid confirmed on February 7, 2026.
