The Girl on the Train, starring Emily Blunt, could be another hit for eOne when it is released next week Entertainment OneEntertainment One, which rejected a bid from ITV in August, shored up its defences against another hostile offer yesterday by revealing that the value of its content library had risen from $1 billion to $1.5 billion in the space of just a year. Darren Throop, chief executive, insisted last month that there was no process under way to sell the company, which has been on a buying spree itself in recent years. This was despite calls from Livermore Partners, a US activist hedge fund which has a stake in eOne, for the company to put itself up for sale.
