Accomplished film producer, Jon Erwin, is joining with former Netflix and YouTube executive, Kelly Merryman Hoogstraten in creating the WONDER Project (WP), which is creating high-quality, hopeful entertainment for families. 

After coming off the success of Jesus Revolution, Erwin is excited about this opportunity. "The dream of The WONDER Project is to create a trusted brand that serves the faith and values audience globally with movies and TV shows they didn't know were possible," Erwin said. "We will achieve this by giving the creatives dedicated to this audience (including myself) a level of freedom and resources they've never had before. This level of talent combined with the power of the stories we are developing is really inspiring! I can't wait for the audience to experience the things we are working on."

Merryman Hoogstraten followed upwith how important it is. "Today, the world needs a way to find common ground again. Here at The WONDER Project, our goal is to flood the world with hope. I am convinced we can make a difference by telling stories that restore hope in things worth believing in – family, community, God, and America. We will do this at scale for a global audience that seeks faith and values-driven entertainment. And we will give the audience a brand they can call their own."

Also getting on board with WP is Dallas Jenkins, creator of The Chosen who serves as a special advisor and large shareholder. He will also be an executive producer for some of the content. 

"The WONDER Project is tapping into a massive, global need. The faith and values audience is global, and the quality shows being developed will meet the long-standing and growing consumer demand," Powerhouse Capital's Managing Partner Ian Doody said. "We've been very impressed by the team at The WONDER Project, and we're confident in their vision for creating best-in-class programming for this vast global audience."
