Spyglass Entertainment is an American film and television production company, co-founded by Gary Barber and Roger Birnbaum in 1998. The studio was founded with an investment from European media conglomerates Kirch Group and Mediaset, and a five-year distribution deal with The Walt Disney Company. It is currently owned by Cerberus Capital Management.

Barber and Birnbaum serve as co-CEOs, while Jonathan Glickman serves as the current President of Production. Jeffrey Chernov was once a production executive at Spyglass Entertainment.

Spyglass Entertainment is expected to finalize a deal to take over 5% of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer.

The MGM creditors have approved the Spyglass Entertainment plan.
