Paramount Pictures is finally turning a corner, according to Bob Bakish, the chief executive of Viacom, the studio’s parent company.

The legendary movie lot, which has been dogged by years of operating losses and dwindling market share, got a boost from a trio of summer hits — “Book Club,” “A Quiet Place” and “Mission Impossible — Fallout,” Bakish said on Wednesday.

“There’s no question that the mountain is back,” Bakish told the Goldman Sachs Communacopia media conference in New York, alluding to Paramount’s iconic logo.

Paramount — which has produced classics like “The Godfather,” “Saturday Night Fever” and “Footloose” — is staging a comeback with better-than-expected box-office receipts, and likewise “killing it” with streaming rentals and DVD sales, according to Bakish.

The media executive predicted similarly strong results for next year, when half of Paramount’s film slate will be tied to Viacom’s five flagship cable brands: MTV, Nickelodeon, Comedy Central, BET and the Paramount Network.

Bakish credited Paramount’s turnaround to Jim Gianopulos, who he named to run it in March 2017.

Viacom shares gained 2.6 percent on Wednesday, to $29.64.
