Gold Tree Studios, a subsidiary of Gold Tree, has unexpectedly filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. This development follows the company's significant achievement of securing $1 billion in financing from Malka Group in March. The funds were intended for expanding the studio's production capabilities.

The bankruptcy filing casts uncertainty over projects the studio was associated with, including an anticipated film featuring Al Pacino and Jessica Chastain. Representatives from Gold Tree and Malka Group have not yet commented on the situation.
