Paramount is engaged in a battle with Netflix to buy Warner Bros. Discovery. Paramount’s most recent bid was rejected in part over financing. On Monday, Larry Ellison, the father of Paramount CEO David Ellison, personally guaranteed $40 billion in an effort to revive that bid. But Netflix’s proposed $83 billion offer is still considered the favorite for now. Talk of this deal has triggered widespread fears in Hollywood about what it could mean for the creative industry. Our senior arts correspondent Jeffrey Brown gets some perspective from one of the leading unions.

🇺🇸 JARED KUSHNER’S FIRM PULLS OUT OF WARNER BROS TAKEOVER BATTLE Kushner’s private equity firm, Affinity Partners, has exited the high-stakes effort backing Paramount Skydance’s hostile takeover bid for Warner Bros, signaling a major shift in one of the biggest media fights in years. The firm confirmed it is no longer pursuing the deal, citing rapidly changing dynamics around the bid. Affinity had been part of a deep-pocketed financial group supporting Paramount Skydance CEO David Ellison’s unsolicited offer, valued at more than $108 billion, for the entire Warner Bros empire. The withdrawal comes days after Warner Bros. and Netflix announced a separate agreement that would carve out key assets, including HBO, HBO Max, and the Warner Bros film studio, effectively undercutting Paramount’s full-company play. With multiple bidders circling and boardroom resistance growing, the ground shifted fast. Affinity said it still believes there is strategic logic behind Paramount’s bid, but competition and deal structure no longer justified staying in the fight. The fund had been aligned with major international investors, including Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund and other Gulf-based backers. Warner Bros. is now widely expected to reject Paramount’s offer, while regulators loom over any potential merger. The media consolidation war isn’t slowing down. It’s just getting sharper.

Puck’s Dylan Byers believes California AG Rob Bonta has a weak case for blocking the $111 billion Paramount-Warner Bros. Discovery merger. Byers says the suit relies on an “archaic” definition of the media market focused on theatrical and cable distribution, rather than the digital platforms actually dominating attention: “David Ellison wants Warner Bros. Discovery to have some semblance of the scale that would be required to compete in a world that is dominated by Netflix, YouTube, TikTok, Apple, Amazon, the list goes on.” “The notion that somehow a combined Paramount-Warner Bros. Discovery is going to be this massive, dominant business that is going to corner every aspect of the market...that’s just not real.” “I think Bonta has an uphill climb in that regard. But he can certainly create headaches, and certainly legal fees, for Ellison for many months.”
