Invincible Entertainment, formerly known as Invincible Pictures, is an American independent film and television distribution and media company. Its activities include theatrical and digital film distribution, video-on-demand, free ad-supported streaming television, and broadcast television.[1]

The company operates the streaming platform Galxy TV and acquired the YTA Broadcast Network in 2022. Invincible has distributed independent films including A Serbian Film, Yoga Hosers, and Peter Five Eight.[2][3][4]

History

Film distribution

Invincible operated under the name Invincible Pictures during its earlier film-distribution activities. In November 2010, the company acquired the North American rights to Serbian director Srđan Spasojević's controversial horror film A Serbian Film. The company planned a theatrical release followed by video-on-demand and home-video distribution.[2]

The acquisition attracted attention because of the film's graphic content and censorship disputes. Ashley defended the acquisition and said Invincible intended to release a rated theatrical version while making a less-restricted version available for home video.[2][5]

In 2016, Invincible acquired the United States distribution rights to Kevin Smith's comedy horror film Yoga Hosers. The company scheduled a roadshow featuring Smith followed by a theatrical release.[3]

In 2023, Invincible announced that it would distribute Michael Zaiko Hall's thriller Peter Five Eight, starring Kevin Spacey, in a limited theatrical release beginning March 22, 2024, followed by home-entertainment and video-on-demand distribution.[4][6]

Business Rockstars

In 2020, Invincible acquired Business Rockstars, a business-oriented digital media network. The acquisition expanded Invincible's portfolio of business programming and streaming television content.[7]

The acquisition was valued at $20 million in stock.[7]

Galxy TV

Galxy TV is a free ad-supported streaming television service operated by Invincible Entertainment. In 2022, Entrepreneur described Galxy as Invincible's FAST service and reported that it carried a number of topic-oriented linear channels.[8]

By October 2022, Broadcasting & Cable reported that Invincible operated 18 free ad-supported streaming television channels, including Galxy TV and a channel devoted to Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog.[1]

In March 2022, Canadian media company Stingray added 17 free ad-supported music and entertainment channels to Galxy TV in the United States and Canada. These included Qello Concerts, Stingray Karaoke, Stingray Classica, Stingray DJAZZ, Stingray CMusic, Stingray Naturescape, and eleven Stingray Music channels.[9]

Galxy also experimented with a viewer revenue-sharing model. Broadcasting & Cable reported in 2022 that the service distributed a portion of its revenue, after streaming costs, to participating viewers and offered additional payments for activities such as reviewing and sharing programming.[1]

YTA Broadcast Network

In September 2022, Invincible completed the acquisition of the YTA Broadcast Network from Centerpost Media for an undisclosed combination of cash and stock. Centerpost retained a minority interest in Invincible.[1]

YTA originated as the Nostalgia Channel in 1985 and later operated under several owners and names. At the time of Invincible's acquisition, the network reached approximately 41 million homes through over-the-air affiliates and cable carriage.[1]

Ashley said Invincible planned to increase YTA's distribution and improve its programming using content from the company's library. The acquisition combined Invincible's FAST streaming operations with a traditional broadcast television network.[1]
