The studio is one of the "Big Five" major American film studios, alongside Universal Pictures, Paramount Pictures, Columbia Pictures, and Walt Disney Studios.

History[edit]

Warner Bros. Pictures was founded on April 4, 1923, by brothers Harry Warner, Albert Warner, Sam Warner, and Jack L. Warner. The company established itself in the early years of Hollywood and became known for its innovative approach to filmmaking and its role in the development of sound films.

Early Years[edit]

In the late 1920s, Warner Bros. Pictures revolutionized the film industry with the release of The Jazz Singer (1927), the first feature-length motion picture with synchronized dialogue. This marked the beginning of the sound era in film.

During the Golden Age of Hollywood, Warner Bros. Pictures produced numerous classic films, including Casablanca (1942), The Maltese Falcon (1941), and Rebel Without a Cause (1955). The studio was also known for its Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies animated series.
