Founded by Mordecai (Modi) Wiczyk and Asif Satchu, the company funds and produces film and television programming.
 
The company's divisions include '''MRC Film''', '''MRC Non-Fiction''', and '''MRC Television'''. In 2018, the company merged with [[Todd Boehly]]'s media assets under Valence Media, with the company as a whole taking on the MRC name in 2020; this included [[Dick Clark Productions]] (briefly known as MRC Live & Alternative), audience data firm [[Luminate (company)|Luminate]] (the former Nielsen SoundScan), and the entertainment industry publications ''[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]]'' and ''[[The Hollywood Reporter]]''. Boehly (through Eldridge Industries) re-acquired most of these assets in August 2022.
