Pinnacle Films was founded in 2008 by Sherard Kingston,[5] as a division of All Interactive Distribution: one of Australia’s largest distributors of physical format media.[6] Pinnacle Films began as an independent distributor acquiring both international and Australian feature films.
In 2021, Pinnacle Films opened Pinnacle Films Studios, consisting of three sound stages and production offices, as an answer to mounting demand for production facilities on the Gold Coast.[5]
An "all rights" licensor, Pinnacle Films distribution includes theatrical, digital (TVOD / SVOD), and physical format media (DVD / Blu-ray / 4K UHD)[7]
In 2023, Pinnacle Films distributed The Secret Kingdom, an Australian family-adventure film, directed by Matt Drummond.[8] The film screened in over 90 cinemas across Australia and the South Pacific.
