For over 80 years – beginning with its founding in 1935 and ending in 2019 (when it became part of Walt Disney Studios), 20th Century Fox was one of the then Big Six major American film studios. It was formed in 1935 from the merger of the Fox Film Corporation and Twentieth Century Pictures. It became one of Big Five among eight majors of Hollywood's Golden Age.

In 1985, the studio was renamed as Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation. After being acquired by Rupert Murdoch’s News Corporation, it was shut down and replaced by 21st Century Fox in 2013. The acquisition of 21st Century Fox by Disney took place in March 2019, including 20th Century Fox. The studio's current name was adopted on January 17, 2020, in order to avoid confusion with Fox Corporation. In December 2020, the company started using 20th Century Studios, Inc. for the copyright of 20th Century Studios and Searchlight Pictures productions as a Disney subsidiary.
