1492 Pictures is an American film production company founded by Chris Columbus, Mark Radcliffe and Michael Barnathan in 1994.[1] The name is a play on Columbus's more famous namesake, Christopher Columbus, and his 1492 landing in the Americas.[2] In addition, the fanfare for 1492 Pictures was composed by Hans Zimmer.
