- A short version is seen at the end movies.

2nd Logo (October 18, 2019-)
Logo: We start out from the clouds as a subway passes over as some birds fly and the city moves. It pans out from a 1950s-esque apartment bar sign with the word "RK" and two circles passing over on the sign, as a person walks by and a car is seen driving. The camera pans and rotates over to the sign as the scenery darkens to black, while a blue circle with "films" below flickers in. The sign then blinks for a moment.
Variants:
- A shortened version exists.
- On the HBO series The Plot Against America, it fades in just before the blue parts of the sign flicker in and cuts out after the blinking.
FX/SFX: Illustrated animation.
Music/Sounds: None or the opening/closing theme.
Availability: First seen on Maleficent: Mistress of Evil and was later seen on Dolittle and the TV series The Plot Against America.
Editor's Note: None.
