"We very much look forward to beginning this long-term arrangement with Lotte and know that they will bring a tremendous amount of enthusiasm, along with their expert marketing and distribution capabilities, to every one of our upcoming films set for release in Korea," said Mark Viane, Paramount's Co-President of International Theatrical Marketing & Distribution.

"Together we will be in the best position to introduce more of Paramount's exciting slate to local audiences. We are looking forward to a successful partnership over the years to come," said Won Chun Cha, CEO of Lotte Entertainment.

Lotte has previously had success distributing other Paramount titles, including 'Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol' in 2011 and 'Transformers: Age of Extinction' in 2014. Source: Deadline.com
