Decal is an American film distribution company owned by Neon and Bleecker Street. It was launched in February 2021 and has since theatrically released three films: Gaia, Ride the Eagle, and Stop and Go.

History

In January 2015, Bleecker Street signed a multi-year distribution deal with Universal Pictures Home Entertainment for the home media releases of its films. By 2021, this deal was close to expiring and the company Neon came across the same problem. As a result, Neon decided to collaborate with Bleecker Street to launch Decal in February 2021. The company's purpose is to distribute and handle home entertainment releases for their films, while also handling home media releases for Greenwich Entertainment. Decal also has the ability to purchase third-party content for distribution. It is overseen by Neon's Andrew Brown and Bleecker Street's Kent Sanderson. At the time of the announcement, Sara Castillo was hired at Decal to create partnerships, serving as Senior Vice President (SVP) of Marketing and Distribution.

In March, the company acquired the North American rights to Gaia, a South African horror-thriller. It also announced that it had hired Ayo Kepher-Maat as SVP of Acquisitions, who would work alongside Catillo to oversee day-to-day operations, and Lilly Stuecklen as Distribution Manager. In May 2021, Decal acquired Ride the Eagle, a comedy film starring Jake Johnson, D'Arcy Carden, J. K. Simmons, and Susan Sarandon; it was released the following month in 15 theaters and through on-demand. In July, Decal purchased the rights to Recovery, a comedy from former Studio C cast members Mallory Everton, Stephen Meek, and Whitney Call. The film was retitled Stop and Go and released on October 1, 2021, in select theaters and straight-to-video. On October 18, Decal acquired the rights to The Last Victim, a thriller starring Ron Perlman, Ali Larter, and Ralph Ineson.

In October 2021, Decal signed a multi-year deal to handle the home entertainment releases of all titles released by XYZ Films.
