Hope Studios is the cinematic department of Hope Channel International. Launched in 2022, Hope Studios was founded in an effort for the global network to expand beyond its global 80+ linear broadcast channels via over-the-air, satellite, and cable networks. After 20 years of successful television in the TV space (including high viewership on DIRECTV and reaching #2 on the G19 network), it was time to reach cinemas and streaming platforms.
Hope Studios is a beacon of hope in a world that often feels dark and uncertain. We strive to create films and series that inspire and uplift audiences, highlighting the transformative power of faith and the boundless love of God. Our stories showcase the resilience of the human spirit and the strength that can be found in community when connected to Christ, all while entertaining and engaging viewers of all ages. Through our work, we aim to bring joy, comfort, and a sense of purpose to those seeking hope, and to be an ongoing source of encouragement and inspiration for those who have found it.
Our team carries a diverse background of ethnicities and experiences in Hollywood, Christian programming, non-profits, and community development. The content we develop, produce, and distribute is intended for all walks of life, political viewpoints, and faiths (or no faith at all). Hope Studios is officially endorsed and supported by the global Seventh-day Adventist Church, representing a strong base of 22 million supporters in every habitable continent. While the values of our content align with those of the Adventist community, our audience is not. Just as many of the 2 million students who attended an SDA school today or the 15 million patients (just the U.S.) who visited an SDA hospital this year may not be Adventist, neither is our audience. Nevertheless, like the educational and healthcare organizations, people everywhere seek what Hope Studios has to offer: intentional, high-quality service grounded in Christian values.
