Atlas Entertainment

Not to be confused with Atlas Film or Atlas International.

Background
Atlas Entertainment is the production company of Charles Roven. It was originally formed in 1995 from the merger of Roven and Bob Cavallo's previous company and Steel Pictures, owned by Roven's wife Dawn Steel. In 1999, after Cavallo left the company to join Walt Disney Studios and Steel died, Atlas was merged with Gold/Miller Management to create Mosaic Media Group. In 2008, Roven split off his ties from Mosaic, and relaunched Atlas Entertainment with a first-look deal at Sony Pictures.

3rd Logo (March 3, 2019- )


Logo: In space, we see a blue light shining from the globe, then a different man wearing a cape, which represents the Greek Titan Atlas from the last logo, is shown holding the globe with it. As the camera zooms out, and unlike the last logo, the man began to move, as one of his arms is letting of the globe only to his strength as he started lifting the globe up to the air. The words "ATLAS" in Trajan font and "ENTERTAINMENT" in an Avenir Next font appear.
