Level 1 Entertainment LLC[1] is an American film production company. It was founded in January 2003 by film producer Bill Todman, Jr. (the son of game show producer Bill Todman) and real estate and banking magnate Edward Milstein. Paul Schwake joined the company later that year as chief operating officer.[2]

In 2006, Level 1 released their first film, the comedy Grandma's Boy, through 20th Century Fox and in collaboration with Adam Sandler's Happy Madison Productions. They again worked with Happy Madison on the comedy Strange Wilderness, which was released on February 1, 2008.
