Legion M (founded 2016) is the world's first fan-owned entertainment company.[1][2]

History

Legion M was founded by Paul Scanlan and Jeff Annison in March, 2016.[3] Legion M is the world's first entertainment studio that allows fans to invest in and be part of the creation of new movies, television shows, and other pieces of entertainment content.[4] Scanlan and Annison were able to create Legion M after the SEC passed Title IV of the JOBS Act, which allowed non-accredited investors to make investments in small businesses.[5] Legion M is currently partnered with Seth Green, co-creator of Emmy-winning TV series Robot Chicken, Gaston Dominguez of Meltdown Entertainment, and gaming studio Animal Repair Show.[6][7]
