C2 Pictures was a film company started in 2002 by Carolco Pictures co-founders Andrew G. Vajna (who had formed Cinergi Pictures until it folded in 1998) and Mario Kassar. The company's first production was I Spy. 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.[1] In 2008, the company fell into dormancy and eventually was dissolved.
