Other Information
This asset earns from music written for the award-winning Shrek film franchise. The catalog generates royalties when the films air on TV, is streamed online, when this music is streamed in the films’ soundtracks and anytime the music plays on Shrek’s theme park rides.
Overall royalties grew 33% year-over-year. This is a result of the Shrek films airing more frequently on cable networks TBS, Nickelodeon, TNT, Bravo, and Paramount networks in 2020.
The catalog collects royalties from the four feature films: Shrek, Shrek 2, Shrek the Third, and Shrek Forever After. It also earns from the holiday TV special Shrek The Halls and any time this music is used in other TV, film, or commercial programming. For example, a scene of Shrek is prominently featured in the 2007 Will Smith movie I Am Legend. Subsequently, this catalog earns a public performance royalty when I am Legend airs on TV or is streamed as well.
PLEASE NOTE: This catalog will not be automatically added to the Secondary Market of The eXchange. The winning bidder can contact Royalty Exchange to relist.
