Paramount finalise le rachat de Warner Bros. Discovery, créant le géant des médias Skydance
–
Résumé neutre
Mardi 6 octobre, Paramount Skydance a finalisé le rachat de Warner Bros. Discovery, formant l'une des plus grandes entreprises de médias de l'histoire. L'accord est évalué à 110 milliards de dollars, bien que certaines sources citent un montant de 81 milliards de dollars. La nouvelle société a été nommée Skydance, avec David Ellison comme PDG et Ynon Kreiz comme co-PDG. L'entité combinée réunit Paramount Pictures et Warner Bros. Pictures, CBS et CNN, ainsi que les services de streaming Paramount+ et HBO Max, qu'Ellison prévoit de fusionner à terme. L'entreprise a déjà averti de possibles suppressions d'emplois, la dette de la nouvelle entité devant atteindre 82 milliards de dollars. Le PDG de CNN, Mark Thompson, a confirmé qu'il resterait à son poste, exprimant sa confiance dans le soutien d'Ellison. Certains vétérans d'Hollywood ont réagi négativement au changement de nom du studio fusionné, le qualifiant de « coup de poing » et de « douloureux ».
