Mark Canton most recently produced the mega-hit 300, based on the Frank Miller graphic novel and directed by Zack Snyder for Warner Bros Pictures which opened to record-setting box office numbers, having grossed almost $400 million worldwide in just five weeks of release and is the highest-grossing March release in the history of the motion picture business.

Mark, Chairman and CEO of Atmosphere Entertainment MM, LLC, has been a preeminent force in the entertainment industry, helping to bring more than 300 pictures to the screen in his capacity as a senior studio executive and producer. Through Atmosphere Entertainment MM, Canton controls a large number of high profile film and television projects that are in various stages of development, pre-production, production and post- production.
