Regency Enterprises is a Los Angeles-based film and television production company formed by Arnon Milchan and Joseph P. Grace. It was founded in 1982 as Embassy International Pictures, but the company name changed to avoid confusion with Norman Lear's Embassy Pictures (known from 1975-1982 as Avco Embassy Pictures). Its most successful film is Mr. & Mrs. Smith, released on June 10, 2005. The company's latest film was an animated film adaptation, based on a book by Roald Dahl and written, produced and directed by Wes Anderson, titled Fantastic Mr. Fox.

Its films were distributed by Warner Bros. until 1997, and by 20th Century Fox from 1998 to the present. As a result, The Fountain, WB's first film produced with Regency Enterprises since 1997, was distributed by that studio only in North America, French and Germany - Fox held international rights.

Its operating units include New Regency Productions (50%) and Regency Television (50%) (a joint venture between Regency Enterprises and Fox Television Studios).

Investments include:

• BabyFirstTV (30%) - cable channel in US aimed at 0-3yr olds.
• The Israeli Network (?%) - cable channel in US
• Channel 10 (?%) - commercial television station in Israel.
