Revolution Studios was a film production company founded in 2000 by Joe Roth, a former chairman of Walt Disney Studios and Twentieth Century Fox. Revolution was a strategic partner of Sony Pictures Entertainment, which distributed and marketed Revolution's films. The company shut down in October 2007, coinciding with the end of the five-year deal with Sony. ^[1]Revolution Studios' last film was The Water Horse: Legend of the Deep.

Revolution was a privately-held company, with Roth owning the controlling interest. Other shareholders included Hollywood executives Todd Garner, Rob Moore, Tom Sherak and Elaine Goldsmith-Thomas, as well as Sony Pictures, Starz Entertainment (which owns pay cable rights), and Twentieth Century Fox.

[edit] Corporate partnerships

Revolution Studios had strategic partnerships with Sony Pictures, Fox Entertainment Group (FEG), and Starz Entertainment. Sony released Revolution's output into movie theaters domestically and internationally, and facilitates distribution (via Sony/Columbia Pictures) for Revolution content to DVD/home video.

Starz Entertainment has the rights to Revolution's library for their pay-television channels (Starz and Encore) through Sony Pictures Television (SPT) and distributed in association with Debmar-Mercury. FEG retains the broadcast television rights (Revolution content airs on the Fox Broadcasting Company) and basic cable rights (FX Networks) through SPT and Debmar-Mercury (broadcast syndication of Revolution Studios films will go through Debmar-Mercury and 20th Television).

After a number of years, the distribution rights of the films will revert back to Revolution Studios, which can then decide how to manage its library of films.
