A series of mergers and acquisitions began when Universal Studios (then a division of the Seagram Company) bought a majority stake in October Films in 1997.[2] In 1999, Universal sold its shares to Barry Diller, who renamed the company USA Films and merged it with Interscope Communications and Gramercy Pictures.[3] Vivendi then acquired USA Films, which acquired Good Machine in 2002 and merged it with USA Films, forming Focus Features.
