Fox Searchlight Pictures was formed in 1994 under News Corporation ( | '''Fox Searchlight Pictures''' was formed in 1994 under News Corporation (now owned by The Walt Disney Company) as a division of [[20th Century Studios]] (previously 20th Century Fox Film Corporation) for independent, arthouse, foreign, horror, and African-American film releases. In January 2020, Disney announced that it would remove "Fox" from the company's name, presumably to avoid confusion with Fox Corporation, renaming it to "Searchlight Pictures", along with 20th Century Studios. | ||

'''Logo:''' This is a redone and more realistic version of the last logo, based on the structure of the 2009 20th Century Fox logo. This time, it is in a dark/orange evening environment. There are newer and more realistic textures added to the structure, we can see palm trees at the bottom at the start (as well as the addition of the Hollywood sign on the hills), and near the right at the end, and it's more obvious at the end that the right searchlight is pointing at us when it fills the screen with light. | '''Logo:''' This is a redone and more realistic version of the last logo, based on the structure of the 2009 20th Century Fox logo.
