## History[edit]

In 1994, Chris Columbus, who successfully directed the first two *Home Alone* films, and *Mrs. Doubtfire*, signed a three-year deal with 20th Century Fox, thus eventually led to the creation of a company called **1492 Pictures**. Its first feature was *Nine Months*.[3] The deal was eventually extended in 1997.[4]

In 2009, it signed a deal with Korean company CJ Entertainment for three years, to produce its feature films.[5]

In February 2011, the company bought the rights to the South Korean comedy film *Hello Ghost* starring Cha Tae-hyun and is scheduled to remake it.[6]

In August 2011, the production company released an adaptation of Kathryn Stockett's novel *The Help*.[7][8]

In 2012, it signed a deal with ro\*co productions to adapt documentary films into scripted feature films.[9]

In 2018, it signed a deal with Netflix to produce feature films for its streaming service.[10]
