Providing film and streaming studios with rich narratives
"Real Histories. Legendary Entertainment."
We uncover overlooked histories and transforms them into compelling narratives for film and television. We believe true stories exceed imagination — and reveal the roots of our shared human experience.
Uncovering Emotionally Driven Story Arcs
We specialize in developing stories based on real events and real people, with a focus on moments where courage, conflict, love, and survival define history’s turning points. Our projects span the epic and the intimate — from revolutions that test personal loyalties, to wars that reshape nations, to acts of forgiveness and passion that bridge divides between enemies and friends.
Founded by Patrick Nebout, Gennadij Kaganovitj and Alexander Kotchoubey, the team has known or worked with each other for many years. Each of the founders has more than thirty years experience in the film, TV and/or finance industries and have worked in Eastern Europe, Western Europe, the Nordics and the USA. Lion’s Tale Entertainment is committed to uncovering and dramatizing the hidden narratives that have shaped our world. Headquartered in London, UK, our team collaborates with authors, historians, and creatives to ensure authenticity, emotional resonance, and cinematic power in every project we bring to life.
Whether sourced from bestselling books, personal archives, or long-forgotten episodes of history, Lion’s Tale Entertainment transforms untold stories into bold, visually driven experiences for global audiences.
