About Us
Strong Island was founded by former Sentient partner Christopher Tuffin, who is perhaps best known as the man who helped develop, package, and structure the finance on the 2023 blockbuster "Sound of Freedom" which has grossed over $250M worldwide theatrically (and over $400 million in gross revenues from all media) making it one of the Top 10 highest grossing films of the year. While running Social Capital, he produced and/or partnered with such notables as Ridley and Tony Scott, Jerry Lewis, Eli Roth, and Julie Delpy.
In 2011, he and Renee Tab formed Sentient, where over the next decade the two would produce and/or executive produce such films "Cosmopolis" starring Robert Pattinson,"Maps to the Stars" starring Julianne Moore, "Peppermint" starring Jennifer Garner,"Overdrive" starring Ana de Armas, "Freelance" starring John Cena, and "Line of Duty" starring Aaron Eckhart, as well as Ryan Murphy's "Feud" for FX (which garnered 18 Emmys and 4 Golden Globe nominations). They most recently produced "Canary Black" starring Kate Beckinsale and have the remake of "The Others" set up at Universal.
With a diverse and robust upcoming slate, international first-look partnerships in multiple territories, and a stable of writers and directors to fill the company's content pipeline, Strong Island is looking to position itself at the forefront of audiences' thirst for storytelling and heroes that connect to and reflect their values and ideals.
