DIC Entertainment Corporation (/ˈdiːk/; formerly known as DIC Audiovisuel, DIC Enterprises, DIC Animation City, later DIC Entertainment, L.P., and DIC Productions, sometimes stylized as DİC) was a French-American film and television production company and animation studio. As a former division of The Walt Disney Company, DIC produced live-action feature films and licensed numerous anime series.
In 2008, DIC was acquired by Cookie Jar Group in June and was later folded into Cookie Jar in July. As of 2026, most of the DIC library is currently owned by WildBrain (formerly DHX Media) after the company acquired Cookie Jar in October 2012.
