History
Duplass Brothers Productions was founded in 1996, with the release of the first film by brothers Jay Duplass and Mark Duplass. The company originally produced low-budget mumblecore films,[1] but has since expanded to studio projects.[2] In 2015, the Duplass Brothers expanded into television with their first series Togetherness, in which Mark also stars.[2] In January 2015, Duplass Brothers Productions closed a four-picture deal with Netflix, involving financing from the company and, after a short theatrical run, the films being available to Netflix subscribers.[3] In June 2015, Duplass Brothers Productions finalized a seven-picture distribution deal with The Orchard, releasing the Duplass-produced films theatrically prior to their Netflix release.[4] Under the TV production arm Duplass Brothers Television, they signed a two-year overall deal with HBO in June 2015.[5] In August 2016, Duplass Brothers announced another television project, Room 104, to air on HBO in 2017,[6] which was quickly renewed for a second season.[7] In 2018, it was announced the company had entered into a new four-picture deal with Netflix, which gave the streaming giant worldwide rights.[8] Mel Eslyn was named president of Duplass Brothers Productions in 2017.
