Interscope Communications (the studio shared its name for a former racing team, "Interscope Racing") was founded in 1979 by media mogul Ted Field, who aimed to create films with mass appeal.[5] Field then hired Peter Samuelson, who was partner with Field for four years as head of film production.[6] Field acted as a producer or executive producer on a number of films in Interscope's filmography. The company's first film, Revenge of the Nerds, was released in 1984 and was a box office success.[7] That same year, Robert W. Cort, a former executive of 20th Century Fox and Columbia Pictures, joined Interscope and became the president of the company. Cort also co-produced a number of films.[8]
On November 13, 1984, the company received an agreement with The Walt Disney Studios for a two-year term, to become the company's first independent supplier within the studio.[9]
On December 10, 1986, Interscope Communications inked a three-picture domestic feature pact with United Artists Pictures, whereas production would be jointly financed by UA and Interscope, and that Interaccess Film Distribution and Vestron Inc. would participate in Interscope's share of financing, and domestic videocassette rights to Interscope's features going to Vestron Video, and foreign theatrical, TV and home video distribution of Interscope's films going to Interaccess Film Distribution.[10]
In early July 1987, Interscope Communications decided to accelerate its TV production phase from four productions from its first four years of existence to a slate of 13 new projects for the next eighteen months, and which include two movies-of-the week, a miniseries and a conventional series for NBC, and Patricia Clifford runs the company's television operations for Interscope's television division, acknowledged a markedly pronounced greater receptivity than in previous years to telefilms dealing with black experience in the U.S., and offered a series of failed pilots and television movies on the air.[12]
In 1990, Nomura Babcock & Brown (NBB) invested $250 million in a joint venture with The Walt Disney Company and Interscope Communications. The deal called for NBB to co-produce and finance[5] films for Interscope and Disney for four years. The joint venture produced five films between 1992 and 1995, all of which were marketed and released under two of Disney's production banners, Touchstone Pictures and Hollywood Pictures.[13] The most successful film co-produced by Interscope and NBB was The Hand That Rocks the Cradle (1992), while other films produced by the joint venture were critical and commercial failures.[8]
Also that year, it purchased Marble Arch Productions from ITC, and decided that ITC Entertainment would co-finance the projects for U.S. and foreign distribution.[14]
PolyGram
In 1992, PolyGram bought a controlling interest in Interscope Communications' film unit. Production and marketing budgets were to be paid by PolyGram.[5] In 1993, Adam Leipzig joined the company as a production executive.[15] Robert W. Cort, president of Interscope, left the company at the end of 1995 believing that PolyGram "took on much more of a corporate environment than it had before and that consequently his role had become more like an executive's than a producer's." Field purchased Cort's 12% stake in the corporation.[8]
Beginning in 1996, Interscope began using PFE's PolyGram Filmed Entertainment Distribution for distribution.[16] In 1997, Chris Van Allsburg, the author of Jumanji had signed a deal with the studio to produce films.[17] Also that year, BallPark Productions, a company owned by Michael Schiffer, set up a deal with the studio.[18]
USA Films merger and shut down
In 1998, after PolyGram was bought by Universal Studios,[19] Interscope's film unit was retained as a subsidiary of Universal until 1999, when it was sold off to Barry Diller's USA Networks, which later merged Interscope Communications with October Films and Gramercy Pictures to become USA Films. In 2000, members of the company formed its successor Radar Pictures, that took the existing Interscope library in the company's development slate, thus rendering Interscope as inactive.[2] The remaining films that were intended to be produced under the Interscope Communications name, including The Last Samurai, Le Divorce,[18]The Heartbreak Kid,[20] and the scrapped Peter Berg film Truck 44 were drafted to Radar Pictures.[2][21]
