Screen Rant is an entertainment website that offers news in the fields of television, films, video games, and film theories. Screen Rant was launched by Vic Holtreman in 2003,[3] and originally had its primary office in Ogden, Utah.[4][5] Screen Rant has expanded its coverage with red-carpet events in Los Angeles, New York film festivals and San Diego Comic-Con panels.[6][7] The associated YouTube channel was created on August 18, 2008,[8] and has over 8.36 million subscribers and over 4,000 videos.[1]

In February 2015, Screen Rant was acquired by Valnet Inc., an online media company based in Montreal, Quebec.[9][10]

Pitch Meeting

The channel previously hosted a video series called Pitch Meeting by Ryan George that debuted in 2017 until 2022, when the series received its own channel,[11] though Screen Rant still owns the series. The series had produced over 200 videos by September 2020, which had garnered 250 million views.[12]
