For the unversed, Daniel Langlois gained almost $200 million in 1994 when he sold Softimage, his 3D animation software firm that he created in 1986. It was one of the biggest animation software companies of that time. ‘Jurassic Park’, ‘Titanic’, ‘Lord Of The Rings’, ‘Harry Potter’, and ‘Pirates Of The Caribbean’ all used the software created by the firm. Later on, Microsoft bought the firm, but the firm stayed in Montreal itself. Soon afterwards, Daniel Langlois went on to found Ex-Centris in 1999. He also co-founded the Festival du nouveau cinema. Not to forget he established a foundation in his own name which went on to assist technology-related initiatives in numerous fields of arts and sciences.

As per reports, Daniel Langlois and Dominique Marchand kept going to the Caribbean Island and living there for many years now. They had opened a self-sustaining luxury Coulibri Ridge eco-resort. The resort which was just about a year old had even won an award shortly after opening up.
