In addition to signing a distribution deal with Warner Bros. , a subsidiary company New Regency Productions was also created. It is located on the 20th Century Fox lot.

New Regency produced 2013's 12 Years a Slave, 2014's Birdman, and 2015's The Revenant, which earned the company two Academy Awards for Best Picture in a row, and three nominations.
