FX chairman John Landgraf has labeled a potential merger between Warner Bros. Discovery and Paramount Skydance as "inevitable," citing the pressures of competing with tech giants like Netflix and Apple in the streaming arena. Shareholders appear to agree, with WBD shares jumping 3% on the news.
The consolidation reflects a broader industry shift where traditional studios lack the scale to sustain global streaming services. HBO Max's struggles against Netflix underscore this disparity. However, Landgraf warns such mergers could shrink opportunities for content creators by reducing the pool of buyers in an already concentrated market.
