Google is working with Range Media Partners on 100 Zeros, a long-term effort to support movies and shows that explore new tech like AI.
In short: Google is using a partnership called 100 Zeros to support and develop movies and TV projects, without running a traditional film studio.
Google and Range Media Partners, a talent and production company, are working together on a multiyear collaboration called 100 Zeros. The goal is to build closer ties with filmmakers and to explore how Google’s technology shows up in entertainment.
This is not a typical “Google studio” that makes and releases its own movies. Instead, reporting describes 100 Zeros as a smaller operation that helps spot ideas, develop them, and sometimes help pay for production. It has also aimed to work with established studios and streaming services, rather than making YouTube the default place where projects appear.
Several projects have been linked to the partnership. These include support for marketing around the independent horror movie Cuckoo, and a set of short films called “AI On Screen” about AI and relationships. In March 2026, the partners also announced plans for “microdramas,” which are short, serialized shows made for phones (like TV episodes broken into snack-sized clips).
In September 2026, Google, Range, and XPRIZE named The Gifted as the winner of a “Future Vision” contest. Google said 100 Zeros would help bring the story to the big screen, and reporting mentioned $2.5 million in production funding plus a $100,000 writing award.
Big tech companies usually show up in entertainment through ads or by hosting video. This partnership is more like being a co-producer, helping choose which stories get made and how new technologies like AI are portrayed.
