Castle Rock Entertainment was founded in 1987 by Martin Shafer, actor and director Rob Reiner, Andy Scheinman, Glenn Padnick and Alan Horn, with Columbia Pictures as their original strategic partner. Early in the studio's history, Nelson Entertainment co-financed their films until 1991, when New Line Cinema took over their duties (after Nelson was sold to New Line). On Christmas Day 1993, Castle Rock was acquired by Turner Broadcasting System and would become a part of Time Warner when the two along with New Line Cinema merged with them on October 10, 1996. In 1999, Warner Bros. Pictures gained distribution rights from Sony Pictures Entertainment/Columbia Pictures. Castle Rock's first release was Winter People in 1989, but no logo was used until When Harry Met Sally.... The Castle Rock production label was a subsidiary of Warner Bros. Entertainment until numerous box office failures caused the folding of the label in 2010. Several movies produced afterwards used the Castle Rock name with special permission, specifically movies made by Rob Reiner himself (i.e. LBJ). The company was revived on October 19, 2021 and will produce films in a first-look deal with Warner Bros.
