In March 2017, MGM announced a multi-year distribution deal with Annapurna Pictures for some international markets and including home entertainment, theatrical and television rights. Later on October 31, 2017, the two companies formed a US distribution joint venture called Mirror Releasing. However, this partnership will not be exclusive to all MGM films, as several of them will continue to be released through existing studio partners, such as Warner Bros. and Paramount. It also does not include newly relaunched Orion Pictures. On February 5, 2019, Annapurna and MGM rebranded and expanded their US distribution joint venture as United Artists Releasing, marking another revival of the United Artists brand, with the Orion Pictures distribution team and films joining the venture. The decision was made to coincide with the United Artists brand's 100th anniversary. Beginning with "Operation Finale", a majority of MGM's films released by the UAR joint venture are released by Universal Pictures Home Entertainment while 20th Century Fox continued releasing a majority of the April 1986-August 2018 catalog until June 2020 and releases from Annapurna and Orion, with the exception of "Creed II", which was released by Warner Home Video due to the film being a co-production between MGM and Warner Bros..
