Creator / Summit Entertainment

Current logo

Summit Entertainment is a film production and distribution company founded in 1991. Formerly one of the top independent labels in the American film industry, it is perhaps best known for the Twilight and Step Up series.

In 2012, the company was purchased by Lionsgate in a deal worth $412.5 million. Since the acquisition, Lionsgate continues to operate Summit as a label, though as of 2020 it is no longer officially credited in opening logos. Films produced by Summit make their cable premiere on HBO through the end of the 2022 slate; films released in 2023 and beyond will premiere on Summit's corporate sibling Starz.
