In 2014, Paramount Pictures became the first major Hollywood studio to distribute all of its films in digital form only. The company's headquarters and studios are located at 5555 Melrose Avenue, Hollywood, California, United States.

Paramount Pictures is a member of the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA).

The Company itself manufactures a wide range of consumer goods & it has annual revenue of $55.4 billion and employs 106,000 employees.

Paramount was founded in 1912. It has become the oldest movie studio ever in Hollywood, beating Universal Studios by one month. Controlled by Viacom, Paramount and its subsidiaries are also involved in television production, theme parks, international film and television distribution, and theater operations in Canada and western Europe. Its films are distributed by United International Pictures in Europe (a joint venture between Paramount itself and Universal Studios).
