Imagine running your own Hollywood studio without the massive capital investment. MoviePass has made this dream a reality with their new platform Mogul, a fantasy league game that lets film enthusiasts draft actors, directors, and movies to compete for digital rewards.

The platform, now publicly available, gives players a virtual budget of one million “Mogul Coin” to build their dream film studio. Users can select upcoming movies like “Wicked: For Good” and strategically choose talent such as Cynthia Erivo, Ariana Grande, and director Jon M. Chu.

What makes Mogul unique is its focus on net profitability rather than total box office gross. Players must think like real studio executives, considering factors like actor controversies, emerging talent, and potential breakout films. Founder Stacy Spikes suggests looking beyond mainstream Hollywood, recommending players explore Bollywood and independent films for potential high returns.

The game operates on the Sui blockchain, tracking every selection and trade. Players can earn digital collectibles like signed movie posters and compete in a global league with potential token prizes. The first season runs 12 weeks, coinciding with awards season, and offers participants a chance to win up to $100,000 in tokens.

For those wanting to join early, MoviePass is offering exclusive in-app badges and Founding Member status to users who activate their accounts by October 31st. Future plans include private leagues and mobile app development, with potential licensing for real-money competitions next year.

Whether you’re a film buff or just enjoy strategic gameplay, Mogul offers a fascinating peek into the complex world of movie studio management – all from the comfort of your digital device.
