Hollywood giant Paramount closes  billion merger deal

 




Holly Williams, Pennsylvania State Affairs Editor

Hollywood giant Paramount Global has agreed to a $28 billion ($25.8 billion) merger with Skydance Media in a deal that brings together two of the world's largest movie studios.

The deal will see Paramount non-executive chairman Shari Redstone sell her family's majority stake in the group, ending their involvement in the company founded by her grandfather in 1936.

Paramount is one of Hollywood's oldest film studios, having produced such classic films as The Godfather, Titanic and Raiders of the Lost Ark, as well as the Mission: Impossible series.

The group also owns television networks CBS, Comedy Central, Nickelodeon and MTV.

Skydance Media is an independent film studio launched by billionaire David Ellison in 2010 and backed by American private equity groups including RedBird.

Skydance has produced blockbusters such as Top Gun: Maverick, Star Trek Into Darkness and Jack Reacher: Never Go Back.

Ms. Redstone said: “Given the changes in the industry, we want to strengthen Paramount for the future while ensuring that content remains king.”

We look forward to the Skydance transaction enabling Paramount to continue its success in this rapidly changing environment.

The complex deal will see Skydance invest about $8 billion ($7.4 billion) to take over Paramount.

It's a two-step transaction, in which Skydance will pay $2.4 billion ($2.2 billion) to buy National Amusements, which controls Paramount.

Skydance would later merge with Paramount.

The transaction is expected to be finalized during the first half of 2025.
