In 2015, Relativity Media filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy after lawsuits and missing loan payments.[4][5][6][7] The bankruptcy was noted as one of the most notorious in entertainment industry.[8] As a result, the company began selling off previously acquired films. Relativity Media reorganized and emerged from bankruptcy in March 2016,[9] but in May 2018 it filed for bankruptcy again.[10] The studio is now a wholly owned subsidiary of UltraV Holdings.[11]
