LOS ANGELES - Steven Spielberg has invested $50
million of his own money into the latest iteration of his DreamWorks
Studios, putting $50 million into his new multimedia company, Amblin
Partners, that he named after his first 35mm film.
The
move aims to reinvigorate the old Amblin brand and to put his first
funds into DreamWorks since it was founded in 1994 as a partnership with
fellow moguls David Geffen and Jeffrey Katzenberg. DreamWorks Pictures,
also known as DreamWorks SKG, or simply DreamWorks, is an film
production label of Amblin Partners.
When
the three partners formed their “full service” studio in 1994,
Spielberg, Katzenberg and Geffen each invested $33 million into the
studio, providing the seed money that eventually attracted a $500
million investment from Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen.
