Warner Bros Rejects Paramount’s $20/Share Bid | Comcast Waiting in the Wings?

BREAKING: Paramount's bold $49.6 billion bid for Warner Bros. Discovery was just REJECTED by CEO David Zaslav—calling it "too low" at $20/share.

With Warner in massive debt and planning a 2025 split (movies/TV separate), is this the end of the road or just round one?

Dive deep into the drama: Could Comcast or Netflix swoop in? What does it mean for HBO Max, Harry Potter, DC Comics, and James Gunn's DCU?

In this video, I break down:

The full story: 2+ years of rumors, David Ellison's Skydance-Paramount merger fueling the fire, and why Warner wants to sell IPs like Game of Thrones & Looney Tunes.

Rejection details: Stock at $17.10/share—Paramount offered a premium, but Zaslav says no deal without more.
Split risks: Warner's 2025 plan to ditch unprofitable cable TV—Comcast eyeing the streaming/studio goldmine?

James Gunn update: Don't panic! Even if a merger happens, deals take 12-24 months. Gunn's 5-year contract runs to 2027—Lanterns, Supergirl, and Superman could save his job if they hit big.
