"MANIFEST YOUR VISION"
Welcome to Magus Films
Strategy. Creativity. Confidence in Execution.
The Magus is the first card of the Tarot—symbolising self-belief, creative focus, and the power to manifest potential into reality. That’s exactly what we help filmmakers do.
Magus Films is led by BAFTA-voting member and film marketing veteran Jonathan Sadler, and exists to empower independent filmmakers, producers, and distributors with the insight, creativity, and industry strategy needed to elevate their work.
Whether you're at script stage or preparing for release, we offer flexible support across the film value chain—from pitch to poster, pre-sales to premieres.
