Revolution StudiosRevolution Studios was founded in 2000 by Joe Roth, a former chairman of Walt Disney Studios and Twentieth Century Fox. Revolution is a strategic partner of Sony Pictures, which distributes and markets Revolution's films. Revolution Studios is a different company in the way their business model operates. The company, initially valued at $1 billion USD, has strategic partnerships with Sony Pictures, Fox Entertainment Group, and Starz Encore Group. Sony Pictures takes care of the releasing of Revolution's output into movie theaters domestically and internationally, and facilitates distribution (via Columbia-TriStar Entertainment/Sony Pictures) for Revolution content to DVD/home video.

Other shareholders include Hollywood executives Todd Garner, Rob Moore, Tom Sherak and Elaine Goldsmith-Thomas, as well as Sony Pictures, the Starz Encore Group, and Twentieth Century Fox.
