The recently launched male-centric broadcast network Grit and its female-centric counterpart Escape have announced the signing of a multiyear licensing pact with Sony Pictures Television giving the networks the TV rights to 150 demo-targeted movies.

“This is the fourth major multiyear film licensing agreement for Grit and Escape, both of which came on the air on August 18,” the network’s parent company, Katz Broadcasting, said in an announcement. “The two networks also recently acquired the television rights to 135 demo-targeted motion pictures from Warner Bros. Domestic Television Distribution, 157 motion pictures from NBCUniversal Television & New Media Distribution, U.S. & Canada and nearly 200 demo-targeted motion pictures from Paramount Pictures.”

Said Jonathan Katz, president and CEO of Katz Broadcasting: “This Sony package adds to our already-impressive lineup of theatricals, featuring some of the greatest movies ever made with legendary stars giving award-winning and memorable performances. They will be very popular with the target demos of both Grit and Escape.”
