Netflix acquires Ben Afflecks company Interpositive inc.

This isn’t an output deal, it’s a business deal, with the streaming giant set to acquire an AI-powered filmmaking technology company that Affleck quietly founded a few years ago: InterPositive.


Affleck will join Netflix as a senior adviser in the deal, alongside all of InterPositive’s staff. The company declined to comment on the terms of the acquisition.


“I knew I had a responsibility to my peers and our industry, to protect the power of human creativity and the people behind it. In creating InterPositive, I sought to do just that,” Affleck wrote in a Netflix post Thursday. “From the invention of the moving image to the transition to digital, from motion capture to virtual production, technology has evolved alongside the artists who use it. Our shared commitment to continuing this legacy makes joining together a natural next step, in addition to Netflix’s decades of experience applying and scaling technology responsibly.”

This is one of the deals we never considered given that when ever Netflix was mentioned to be in a merger it was initially about getting WB but that unrelated deal became about Paramount getting WB. This one is an interesting move by Netflix to get an AI company that specializes stuff for film makers.
