Foundation date 1 january 2000
Go Fish Pictures was the art house film subsidiary of DreamWorks, founded in 2000. The subsidiary experienced success with the anime films Millennium Actress and Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence in 2003 and 2004 respectively, which led them to venture into releasing live-action films with the release of The Chumscrubber.
However, The Chumscrubber was a commercial and critical failure, which led DreamWorks to shut down the subsidiary in 2007 shortly after the release of Japanese film Casshern, but not long before the studio's sale by Reliance Entertainment a year later.
