Cinema United Chief Michael O’Leary Blasts Paramount Warner Bros. Deal, Endorses Litigation to Delay Merger

Paramount Skydance is highly confident in its $110 billion takeover of Warner Bros. Discovery, despite a federal judge temporarily pausing the deal. The judge stated the merger likely violates antitrust law. Meanwhile, Cinema United CEO Michael O’Leary has strongly criticized the proposed merger. O’Leary expressed support for litigation filed by state Attorneys General, which has effectively put the deal on hold, and he continues to urge theater owners to oppose the transaction.
