C2 Pictures was a American independent media-entertainment company, it specialized in film and television production.

History

The company was established in 1998 by Carolco Pictures co-founders Andrew G. Vajna (who had formed Cinergi Pictures until it folded in this same year) and Mario Kassar.[1] The company's first production was action comedy film I Spy (2002). Though this film was the company's first, Kassar and Vajna's initial purpose for forming the new company was to resurrect the Terminator franchise.[2] In 2008, the company fell into dormancy and eventually was dissolved.[citation needed]
