Hidden Pictures Media

What Hidden Pictures Media does

Hidden Pictures Media is a Los Angeles-based film and television production company founded in July 2022 by Oscar- and Emmy-nominated producer Todd Lieberman. The company produces premium feature films, scripted television series, and documentary content across genres including thriller, drama, family, action, and comedy, packaging high-profile source material (bestselling novels, existing IP) with star-driven talent for major studios and streaming platforms. It operates through an independent development fund and a strategic film partnership with Lionsgate, announced at launch, with additional capital from Mint Mobile CEO David Glickman.

The product portfolio spans theatrical films distributed by Lionsgate (The Housemaid, White Bird: A Wonder Story), Netflix originals (War Machine), Amazon Prime Video/MGM Studios releases (Shotgun Wedding, Soul Power, Robin Hood), and Disney+ originals (Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers, Beauty and the Beast). Recurring IP franchises are a deliberate strategy, with Robin Hood Season 2, a War Machine sequel, and The Housemaid's Secret all greenlit. The Housemaid grossed nearly $400M globally in 2025, War Machine debuted at #1 on Netflix in March 2026, and Robin Hood debuted at #1 globally on MGM+ in November 2025.

Hidden Pictures monetizes through production fees, backend participation, and licensing deals negotiated with studio and streaming partners, with no publicly disclosed pricing. Revenue and ARR are not disclosed. The company operates with 12 employees, relying on project-based hiring of directors, cast, and crew, and a small executive team led by Lieberman (Principal), Alexander Young (President), Carly Kleinbart Elter (Vice President), and Heather Zeegen Lieberman (Head of Operations). Founder Todd Lieberman continues to co-own Mandeville Films, his prior production banner, but Hidden Pictures is operated as a distinct entity.
