The first film to bare the Millennium name. Avi Lerner’s Nu Image had been producing films since 1992, but this gung-ho crime-thriller — starring Bruce Willis as a boozed-up, burned-out NYPD detective — was the debut outing from its, then, subsidiary label Millennium Films. It was also the final movie from legendary Hollywood director Richard Donne...
John Rambo returns! Two decades after his last outing (and with rights eventually acquired by Millennium via Miramax), Stallone donned the famed bandana once more and the franchise — now one of Millennium’s “most successful,” according to CEO Jeffrey Greenstein — was reborne. Rambo: Last Bloodwould follow in 2019.

Lundgren!) and kick-started one of the most successful franchises of all time (the fourth is out next year). “It was a beautiful surprise,” says Greenstein. “And it’s now a franchise grossing nearly three quarters of a billion dollars.” And who can forget the Cannes moment in...

Olympus Has Fallenwould earn $170 million, spawning two hit sequels and with more set to come. Notes Greenstein: “We’d done the romantic comedy Playing for Keeps with Gerry and we just said, dude, ...
This Statham-starrer set among meth labs and biker gangs in small-town Louisiana — a “great action film with some dramatic chops to it,” according to Greenstein — did decent business for Millennium on release. But almost 10 years later Homefront dramatically resurfaced on Netflix, claiming the number 1 film spot.
Two of the biggest names in the business — Ryan Reynolds and Samuel L. Jackson (plus Gary Oldman and Salma Hayek) — teamed up for this wildly successful action comedy, that amassed a global box of of $176 million. “When I first brought it Avi (Lerner) told me I was out of my mind,” recalls Greenstein. “Of course, now he says he’s always loved Hitma...
Starring Scott Eastwood, Orlando Bloom and Caleb Landry-Jones, This was a new kind of offering from Millennium, a gritty war film set in Afghanistan and showing the real-life struggles of U.S. army veterans as they came up against the might of the Taliban. “It was this incredibly heroic event where these guys just said that we need to stick togethe...
Megan Fox led this icy thriller, that was noted for being one of the first shot during the pandemic and a film that never looked like it would happen as travel bans erupted across the world and countries began shutting down. But through perseverance, it did happen. “We found a way to get it going and we did it safely, with no COVID cases,” says Gre...
