Marv Studios, formerly SKA Films, is a British independent production company owned and co-founded by Matthew Vaughn. It is best known for the motion pictures Layer Cake, Stardust, Kick-Ass, Kingsman: The Secret Service, Kingsman: The Golden Circle and The King's Man. The company name is an acronym deriving from Vaughn’s birth name: Matthew Allard Robert Vaughn. HistorySKA FilmsIn 1997, producer Matthew Vaughn and director Guy Ritchie launched their own company in the United Kingdom, with its first project being Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, which is for Handmade Films.[3] In 1999, Vaughn and Ritchie struck an agreement with Sony Pictures to distribute its next project, Snatch.[4] The team followed it up with their next big project Swept Away, starring Madonna.[5] The film ended up being bombed critically and commercially.[6] It went on to win the Golden Raspberry Awards in 2003.[7] Marv Films / Marv StudiosLater that same year, Ritchie and Vaughn broke up ties, thus rebranding from SKA Films to Marv Films, and its first production under the new banner was Matthew Vaughn's directorial debut Layer Cake.[8] In 2007, it signed a deal with Sony Pictures Entertainment to produce its feature films.[9] Later that same year, Charlie Mitchell joined the company.[10] In 2009, Kris Thykier decided to leave Marv Films, in order to set up PeaPie Films, to produce new feature films.[11] In 2018, Vaughn launched its subsidiary Marv Studios to set up new feature film reboots.[12] Marv MusicIn 2021, Marv launched a record label, Marv Music, in conjunction with Warner Music Group. The label is distributed under Warner's Parlophone unit.[13] Logo designThe logo is notable due to its ever changing design over the years and depending on what movie it is attached to. It was initially the basic name written in Times New Roman over a regular background, until the release of Kick-Ass where the letters were presented in colorful paint over a blue background. The logo soon gained notoriety starting with the release of Kick-Ass 2. The logo begins showcasing a Monocrhome CRT style first person shooting game before the camera pans up into a green dotted constellation. The green dots combine with red dots forming the MARV logo in an Ishihara plate design. This was done in reference to Matthew Vaughn himself who is color blind.[14] The current logo is that of a pair of rolling dice, with the black dots formed to resemble the individual letters of MARV.
