Buena Vista International (BVI) will distribute the upcoming Pixar toon, Cars, and other highly anticipated motion pictures in Vietnam through MegaStar Joint Venture Company Ltd., a joint venture between Envoy Media Partners and Phuong Nam Corp. Disney sees Vietnam as a dynamic, growing market and looks forward to having its films run in the nation’s first eight-screen multiplex, which MegaStar will open in late April.
MegaStar has offices in both Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, and will be run in Vietnam by Lim Eng Hee and overseen by Tony Manne, based in the U.S. In addition to Cars, the company will handle the Vietnamese roll-outs of such Disney pics as Eight Below, The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe and the eagerly awaited sequel Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Dead Man’s Chest.
