History

Tripictures was founded in 1987 by Felipe Ortiz, Pepe Hueva and Luis Ortiz. [2] [3] In 1995, Tripictures reached a deal with Mandalay Pictures for the release of their films in the Spanish market, [4] while the company inked another deal with New Line Cinema in 2001. [5] Tripictures ventured into international co-production with a minority stake on Asterix at the Olympic Games . [3] In 2006, mass media group Vocento acquired a majority stake (67%) in Tripictures. [5] In 2013, Tripictures and DeAPlaneta reached an agreement for the Spanish distribution of DreamWorks films. [6] In 2014, Vocento disinvested in the distribution business of Tripictures to cut losses, selling to Tripictures International (chaired by Tripictures CEO Felipe Ortiz) while retaining control over the portfolio. [7] Tripictures later reached an agreement with Netflix for a limited theatrical window of some Netflix original films in select screens before hitting the streaming release (in force since 2019).
