Turner Pictures Worldwide Distribution, Inc. was also founded to handle international sales and distribution of Turner Pictures productions. Turner Pictures was dissolved into
Warner Bros. Pictures in 1996 when Turner merged with Time Warner, although it continues to produce films until 2001, but these films are released by Warner Bros. In 2003, it was revived as Ted Turner Pictures, although it was an ultra short-lived studio this time.
