After an eight-year run at Paramount, Brad Pitt’s Plan B has signed a three year deal with New Regency and RatPac Entertainment. Under the agreement, New Regency and Brett Ratner’s RatPac will finance future films from Plan B, and RatPac will have the opportunity to co-finance the multiple projects from Pitt’s production company currently in development at New Regency.
“Our company is built on working with the best talent in the business,” said Brad Weston, President and CEO, New Regency.
“Plan B has become a consistent supplier of top-tier material and talent,” said James Packer and Brett Ratner, founders of RatPac Entertainment. “As a new company, for us to be able to partner withArnon and his team at New Regency on this deal, it gives us a great jump-start for what we are trying to accomplish.

Plan B and Paramount had gone through some rough times in the last year after a problematic shoot on “World War Z,” but those problems seemed to fade once “World War Z” grossed more than $540 million at the worldwide box office.
