Producer Mark Bauch has launched One Day's Walk, a new film and television production company, Deadline reported on 12 November 2026. The company says it is dedicated to championing visionary filmmakers and bold original storytelling.

The launch comes with projects already listed. One Day's Walk has a slate involving Netflix, Artists Equity, Working Title, Rideback, Bosque Ranch and Jigsaw Entertainment, the production company run by filmmaker Alex Gibney.

The most advanced title named in the announcement is A Speck in the Sea, an upcoming project directed by Orlando von Einsiedel. It stars Josh Brolin and Jeremy Renner.

Other titles are earlier in the process. The Brotherhood is in development with Netflix, written by Bill Dubuque and directed by Cal McMau. "In development" means the script and plans are still being shaped before any filming begins.

Duty Honor Country, written by Max Adams, is also in development. Bauch will produce it alongside Rideback.

Several projects are original stories rather than adaptations. The Prize is an original action thriller written by Adam Cozad, made in collaboration with Artists Equity. Bearfoot is an original adventure romance conceived by Bauch with Bosque Ranch. The List is an original romantic comedy, also conceived by Bauch, with Maika Monroe attached to star and produce. Being "attached" means the actor has agreed to join, though a film is not yet certain to be made.

One Day's Walk is also collaborating with Jigsaw Entertainment on a documentary feature. No title or timing was given for that film.

Bauch's own record stretches across dramas, documentaries and television. He executive produced The Two Popes, Lost and Found and The Lost Children. An executive producer is a credit given to people who help secure money and shape a project, often without running the day-to-day shoot. He also produced Antoine Fuqua's Troublemaker, which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year.

Before founding the new company, Bauch spent more than a decade working with Dan Lin at Lin Pictures, and with Ron Howard and Brian Grazer at Imagine Entertainment. Both outfits are known for building films from early idea to finished picture, a path One Day's Walk now follows on its own.

The slate spans romantic comedy, action, adventure and documentary, along with a television-style series under development at Netflix. Each title is at a different stage, and any of them could change as it moves forward.
