With the help of his American daughter, Julia Lebedev, a USC graduate living in Los Angeles, Lebedev has entered the US film industry. They have formed a small film company, Code Red Productions, where he serves as financier, while Julia identifies promising screenplays, potential partners and supervises production. Recent works include The Good Doctor (2011 film) co-produced with the film's star Orlando Bloom ("Pirates of the Caribbean") and "Prophet," which is in production and features the animation voices of Salma Hayek and Liam Neeson.
