Gener8Xion Affiliate Closes Distribution Deal With FOX

LOS ANGELES, March 22 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Gener8Xion Entertainment, Inc. ("Gener8Xion") (BULLETIN BOARD: GNXE) , announced today that its production affiliate, One Night With the King, Inc. (http://www.8x.com/onenight/) has formally entered into a definitive home video domestic distribution agreement with Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment, LLC ("Fox"), a wholly owned subsidiary of News Corporation, in connection with its major biblical epic feature film, "One Night With the King" (the "Film"). This distribution agreement could pave the way for Gener8Xion to develop an ongoing strategic relationship with a Major Studio for its upcoming slate of Family/Faith-based feature films.

The agreement grants Fox Home Video domestic distribution rights to the epic feature film, "One Night With the King." The Film was shot in Rajasthan, India and chronicles the life of the young Jewish girl, Hadassah, who goes on to become the Biblical Esther, Queen of the Persian Empire, and saves the Jewish nation from annihilation at the hands of its arch enemy, Haman, while winning the love and admiration of the fiercely handsome King Xerxes. Legendary Academy Award-winning actors Peter O'Toole and Omar Shariff reunite for the first time in this Film since their star-making turns in the mega-box office classic, "Lawrence of Arabia." The Film features a cast of thousands, including international film stars John Rhys-Davies and John Noble. Both actors were recently featured in Peter Jackson's blockbuster trilogy, "The Lord of the Rings."

Gener8Xion's Chairman and CEO, Matthew Crouch said, "The closing of this agreement is a milestone in forging a potential strategic output arrangement with a highly respected Major Studio. We are extremely pleased to commence a close working affiliation with Fox and we believe that this deal will afford us an exceptional opportunity to directly access Fox Home Video's expansive domestic distribution network. The senior management team at Fox has an excellent track record in the Family/Faith-based genre and possesses a keen understanding of our burgeoning market."
