CANNES, FRANCE — May 2026 — Largo announced yesterday that Glenn Gainor, CEO of Hollywood Ventures Groupwill serve as a strategic development and production partner for Terminal, the winning project of Largo’s Cannes 2026 Pitch Event.

Directed and co-written by David Poulshock and produced by Alyssa Roehrenbeck, Terminal is a psychological thriller set inside an isolated cult compound where followers prepare for a promised “ascension” while a journalist undercover uncovers a deadly conspiracy beneath the group’s apocalyptic rhetoric.

Glenn Gainor is the CEO of Hollywood Ventures Group, a media and entertainment company focused on film and television development, financing, production, and strategic partnerships. Prior to launching Hollywood Ventures Group, Gainor served as Head of Physical Production for Amazon Studios, where he oversaw numerous feature film and television productions.

“Terminal immediately stood out because it combines bold cinematic vision with timely psychological and cultural themes,” said Glenn Gainor. “David Poulshock has created a contained thriller with strong commercial appeal and a highly cinematic world. We’re excited to help bring the project to the marketplace.”

David Poulshock is an American filmmaker whose work includes the best-selling Wee Sing children’s series, educational productions for Annenberg, and the award-winning documentary Space, A Meditation on the Meaning of Art.

Alyssa Roehrenbeck is a seasoned producer with festival hits like Wishful Thinking which just sold to Sony Pictures Classics and won the jury prize at SXSW, as well as A Simple Machine which has won numerous Audience Awards including Cleveland Film Festival. 

“Largo’s Cannes Pitch Event was designed to identify projects with both creative originality and strong audience potential,” said Sami Arpa, CEO of Largo. “Terminal delivered on both fronts. We’re excited to see Glenn Gainor and Hollywood Ventures Group help accelerate the project’s development and production trajectory.”
