Jessica ClemonsHOST
Yeah, it's probably...
Jessica ClemonsHOST
And David Ellison's Skydance is probably gonna be okay.
Jessica ClemonsHOST
Wouldn't that be insane if it was just Michael B. Jordan? Well, Michael B.
Jessica ClemonsHOST
Jordan's also on
Neil GregoryHOST
I don't think there's going to be...
Neil GregoryHOST
See, the problem we have is with the Paramount, Skydance, Warner Brothers merger deal, they just put the pause on everything.
Neil GregoryHOST
And that meant Star Trek is paused.
Neil GregoryHOST
At the minute, the only thing actively in development is Paramount, or Skydance now, I guess, has a separate standalone Star Trek theatrical film in development, and it's going to be written and directed by Jonathan Goldstein and John Francis Daly.
Neil GregoryHOST
Who are those, you might ask me, Neil? Who are those? They are the writers, directors of Game Night and Dungeons and Dragons on Amongst Thieves and Recent Mayday.
Neil GregoryHOST
So ironically, they've already worked with one Kirk, Chris Prine.
Neil GregoryHOST
You've just appointed these guys who are known for really good action comedies.
Neil GregoryHOST
You're telling me you're appointing these guys and it's
BrettHOST
Distributed by Warner Brothers Pictures, which is now Paramount, I guess.
CarlHOST
It's actually Skydance.
BrettHOST
Skydance
CarlHOST
owns Paramount and Warner Brothers now.
CarlHOST
Which again, a lot of people don't like, but I'm glad because we'll still be getting Blu-ray releases from that combined company.
Patrick CourrielcheHOST
But at the end of the day, I'm not going to get into the specifics politically, what I think needs to happen.
Patrick CourrielcheHOST
What we really understand and what's our wheelhouse is the cultural aspect of things and anywhere that you can support people they're getting involved in culture we are in a way better position now than we were in 2016 X is not going to boot us because Elon purchased it you have Ellison who with Skydance ended up getting Paramount and Warner Brothers and now has CNN under his umbrella a right leaning guy We are in a much better place now than we were 10 years ago.
Patrick CourrielcheHOST
So do not let yourself get down.
Patrick CourrielcheHOST
Things are moving in the right direction in that area.
Luke ThomasHOST
ham.
Luke ThomasHOST
Anytime I get a chance to talk to a legislator, you should break up Skydance, you should break up TKO.
Luke ThomasHOST
And you should do those things on their own merits.
Luke ThomasHOST
But this idea that they're going to just walk back and be like, well, we're going to listen.
Luke ThomasHOST
Nowhere.
Luke ThomasHOST
Break up TKO.
Luke ThomasHOST
Break up Skydance.
Luke ThomasHOST
Do it tomorrow.
Richard DeitschHOST
The high prices for the NFL and the World Cup rights could create basically an opening for them as other media companies reassess their sports portfolios and spending commitments.
Richard DeitschHOST
Obviously, Skydance would be one of them just given – They're going to have to make some big decisions with that merger with WBD.
Richard DeitschHOST
But what's interesting with Versant, Austin, is they have the WNBA, as we mentioned, Pac-12, Bundesliga.
Richard DeitschHOST
They have golf, NASCAR.
Austin KarpGUEST
Laz has the connections.
Austin KarpGUEST
And he's going to make a run at some stuff that maybe we're not thinking about.
Richard DeitschHOST
John Lewis, do you see the NHL as a long-term fit for Skydance? Because I do not.
John LewisGUEST
Well, it depends on how committed they are to the success of TNT Sports, right? Because obviously the NHL has worked out on TNT Sports.

My tachyon pulse has been unable to completely penetrate the anomaly.
JayHOST
News coming out of Skydance confirms my worst fears about their deal to buy Warner Brothers and that this deal is only going to be bad for consumers, only going to be bad for the TV and movie industry.
JayHOST
But look, I'll talk about what has happened in a minute because it is actually seismic and I'm going to explain to you some of the numbers and some of the ways they're going to have to implement this new plan.
JayHOST
But first of all, I'm going to talk to you about The Lesser of Two Evils.
JayHOST
Because initially, Warner Brothers was actually bought out by Netflix.
JayHOST
And then, in part because of politics, the deal fell through.
JayHOST
And Skydance came in and bought Warner Brothers.
JayHOST
111 billion quid.
ChrisHOST
I believe that's the case, because Oracle's in the same boat there.
ChrisHOST
Skydance has offered buyouts, you know, now that they've...
ChrisHOST
And this is to be expected.
ChrisHOST
They're offering buyouts as they're combining the Time Warner...
ChrisHOST
Warner Brothers purchase with Paramount to create Skydance, there is going to be a bunch of, you know...
ChrisHOST
I'm not using the British term of redundancy, even though that applies here.
ChrisHOST
I'm saying that there's a lot of roles that exist in Paramount and exist in Warner Brothers that... that overlap.
ChrisHOST
I think they're giving them a graceful way to take the buyout first and then see where they're at and then determine if an actual reduction in force is required.
JesseHOST
On top of that, I've been saying for almost a year now, they don't have a future right now as far as a new contract.
JesseHOST
And there is really no reason for Skydance, I guess I'll call it by the right company name, to keep them besides the fact that even if it's losing a little bit of money for Khan, it's probably not losing them anything.
JesseHOST
Well,
ZachHOST
that's the other thing is that and like and like here's the biggest question.
MarkGUEST
So for their TV deal, this is what it says.
MarkGUEST
A.W.' 's current domestic television deal with Warner Brothers Discovery airing Dynamite on TBS and Collision on TNT, plus streaming on HBO Max officially runs through the end of 2027 with a potential fourth year option to extended 2028.
MarkGUEST
However, the ongoing corporate restructuring ownership shifts, including the Warner Brothers sales activity, including Paramount and Skydance, and contract reviews have created uncertainty regarding whether the 2028 option year will be exercised or if the renegotiations renegotiations will
ZachHOST
shift the landscape earlier.
Grace RandolphHOST
But Cat in the Hat will probably hit maybe hopefully around New Year's and it'll become a babysitting movie.
Grace RandolphHOST
It's Warner Brothers, so it'll be on HBO Max or whatever they turn the Skydance streaming app into.
Grace RandolphHOST
And
Grace RandolphHOST
then Wild
Grace RandolphHOST
So I guess it's a step in the right direction.
Grace RandolphHOST
And he has a major studio backing him up.
Grace RandolphHOST
Skydance, which is behind Paramount.
Grace RandolphHOST
This is a Paramount movie.
