Warner Bros Disaster? Netflix inks deal for troubled Hollywood giant
AI Summary
In December 2025, Netflix is reportedly planning a takeover of Warner Bros Discovery, a media giant formed in 2021 by the merger of Discovery Inc. and WarnerMedia. The merger, orchestrated by Warner Bros Discovery CEO David Zaslav, aimed to combine iconic brands like HBO, CNN, and Warner Bros. to create a globally scaled growth company. However, since the merger, the company's stock has declined, and the promised benefits for Hollywood producers, shareholders, and viewers have largely failed to materialize. Despite the company's struggles, Zaslav has remained one of the highest-paid executives in corporate America. The potential Netflix takeover signals a significant shift in the media landscape.
