Screen Rant is a leading online entertainment news publication that provides news, reviews, and editorials on movies, TV shows, video games, and comic books. Founded in 2003, it has grown into one of the largest and most trusted sources for entertainment news worldwide.

About ScreenRant

What began in 2003 as a humble passion project has since blossomed into one of the most formidable and trusted voices in entertainment journalism. Screen Rant was born from the mind of Vic Holtreman, a movie and sci-fi aficionado who, with no prior web design experience, crafted a simple website to share his unvarnished thoughts with a small circle of friends. In an era dominated by the likes of 'The Lord of the Rings' trilogy and the dawn of 'Battlestar Galactica', before the modern superhero cinematic universe was a mere twinkle in Marvel Studios' eye, Screen Rant carved out its niche with the tagline, 'SciFi, TV & movie news without the sugar coating.' This commitment to insightful analysis and editorial perspective, rather than just regurgitating news, was the cornerstone of its identity. It was a platform for genuine discussion among fans, a quality that would attract a massive global audience in the years to come.

The site's trajectory took a significant turn in February 2015 when it was acquired by Valnet, a dynamic online media company based in Montreal. This acquisition marked a new chapter of growth and expansion for Screen Rant, allowing it to scale its operations and solidify its position as a leading entertainment news source. Under Valnet's ownership, Screen Rant has continued to flourish, expanding its coverage to include not just movies and television, but also video games, comic books, and anime. The team has grown from a single founder to a global force of hundreds of experienced editors, journalists, video creators, and niche experts. They are a collective of passionate cinephiles, TV addicts, and gamers, brought together by a shared love for all things entertainment. Their presence is now felt at major industry events worldwide, from red carpet premieres in Hollywood and London to panels at Comic-Con and film festivals like TIFF and Sundance. With over two decades of reporting, Screen Rant's articles and editors are now featured and sourced by the world's most authoritative news outlets, a testament to its journey from a fan's personal blog to a global entertainment powerhouse.
