ABOUT THE STUDIO
With the departure of Sherry Lansing forthcoming, Paramount Pictures is about to go through some major, sweeping changes.

After producing over 3,000 films, Paramount remains committed to the company's original slogan: "If it's a Paramount Picture, it's the best show in town." It is the only major motion picture studio located in Hollywood . It is an expansive, self-contained state-of-the-art production center and business community.
