IMDBpro company name change

Hi, I’d like to update my company name on IMDb. The current company is JL FILM, but our company has recently merged with another company and will now operate under a new name, FG FILM.

We would like to change the company name from JL FILM to FG FILM, while keeping all the existing projects and credits on the page unchanged.

Would it be possible to make this change?

Hello CeciliaWu123

If your company has been credited on-screen with a former name, that name/company listing will need to remain in the database as is, so that we can preserve the credit as it appeared on-screen.


If your company has changed names (and has on-screen credits with a former name), you can create a new listing for your new company name and link the two listings with an "AKA" affiliation (which indicates that the company changed names). This affiliation can be submitted via the Edit Page button at the bottom of the new company page.

Hi Fran,

Thank you very much for your help.

We are a Chinese distributor specializing in the theatrical distribution of foreign films in China. As our company does not appear with any logo or company credit in the on-screen credits of the films we distribute.

We are now planning to create a new company page for our new company, FG FILM. We would like to transfer all of the credits currently listed under our former company, JL FILM, to the new FG FILM company page.

Would it be possible for your team to assist us with this and process the transfer of all the existing credits together, rather than requiring us to update or submit each title individually?

Also, once the credits have been transferred, does the old JL FILM company page need to remain active, or can it be removed/merged into the new FG FILM page?

Thank you again for your assistance. We would greatly appreciate your guidance on the best way to handle this.

@CeciliaWu123_​ - Hi, 

If there are changes needed, you are welcome to submit them through the contribution form. As per what Fran mentioned above, they can be linked through the 'AKA' affiliation. 

Cheers!
