Company history
In May 2002, producer Marc Abraham, Beacon COO Thomas Bliss and senior VP of development Eric Newman broke away from their previous partner Beacon Pictures, to set up Strike Entertainment, with a deal at Universal Pictures, who financed the company along with foreign partnerships.[1]
In March 2013, Marc Abraham, Thomas Bliss and Eric Newman dissolved Strike Entertainment after 11 years as a Universal-based production company. The Universal first-look deal dissolved the company in Spring 2013, which marked the end of a 15-year tenure at the studio for Abraham and Newman. Abraham and Newman said the partnership simply ran its course and that the parting is amicable. They will continue to work together on a project they still have percolating under the Strike banner.[2]
