Hasbro is selling its eOne television and movie business to Lionsgate in an approximately $500-million US deal. The acquisition will give Lionsgate access to eOne's 6,500 titles, including Grey's Anatomy, Yellowjackets and The Woman King.

Lionsgate will also receive film development rights to Hasbro's Monopoly, based on the popular board game.

At the time, Hasbro was interested in eOne's preschool brands, which included Peppa Pig and PJ Masks.
