On April 28, 2016, Comcast officially announced that it intended on acquiring DreamWorks Animation for $3.8 billion, valuing the company at $41 per share. The acquisition was completed on August 22 of that year, and became a unit of NBCUniversal. [[Universal Pictures]] took over distribution rights of DreamWorks Animation's films shortly after the 20th Century Fox deal ended; and they would release their first theatrical DWA film, ''How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World'', on February 22, 2019. As of today however, [[Paramount Global]] still retains the TV (and select streaming) rights to most of the Paramount-distributed DreamWorks Animation films under license from Universal Pictures via Paramount Worldwide Television Licensing & Distribution, which are also licensed by [[Trifecta Entertainment & Media]] for syndication. In Japan, DreamWorks titles are currently distributed by [[GAGA Corporation|GAGA]] in partnership with Universal's Japanese distributor, Toho-Towa. | On April 28, 2016, Comcast officially announced that it intended on acquiring DreamWorks Animation for $3.8 billion, valuing the company at $41 per share.
