In its founding year, Millstreet Films produced the cinema hit Loft (2010). This was followed by Gooische Vrouwen (2011), Soof (2013), Rendez-Vous (2015) and Soof 2 (2016). De Held (2016), based on the book by Jessica Durlacher, was the opening film of the Netherlands Film Festival. In 2014, Millstreet Films produced its first drama series, Nieuwe Buren, which achieved high ratings on RTL 4 and was also successful internationally. All four seasons are available on Videoland. Following the two cinema films, Soof returned in its own series for RTL 4, with both seasons broadcast in the Netherlands on RTL 4 and available on Videoland. In 2018, Millstreet Films produced the series ANNE+.
