“We are in the business with long-term added value,” David Ellison proclaimed on Wednesday as shares of his newly shaped Paramount, a Skydance company that jumped double-digit digits during the first week of his reign. As a majority of the shareholder on the new Paramount, Ellison was victory with strong support from Redbird, but also warned that his plan was not on “every day, we are looking for … value for our shareholders”.
A week ago, a Jargon processing echo seemed to be less like a mogul in the creation, and more like the guy who just handed over the keys to his new paramount ride. A man who strives to take out the legacy studio for a shoot as a strategy. Now, with a few well -executed bumps and victories, the SkyDance founder and his experienced crew seem to be more like the masters of Hollywood -Octagon.
After a payout of $ 16 million to Donald Trump in the dying days of the Shari Redstone regime as the takeover of $ 8 billion, the approval of the FCC and the proposal of Potus was waiting for a big bucks contract to be fate and the state of CBS news seemed a painful point.
But not to David Ellison.
“The trust business is incredibly important to me,” said Ellison today during a press conference in Los Angeles and described the CBS news department as “the home of Walter Cronkite. The repetition of phrases that he used in a New York Huddle last week, and as a small rosa theme. First of all. I will not be able to give political comments on anything.”
And then he somehow did, at least more than most Tinseltown managers lately.
“It is an essential part of our democracy and an honor to be part of this institution” 60 minutes.

Otherwise 7.7 billion US dollars UFC -Deal, ratings and politically South Park TKOS, this jumping stock and some high-tech movements in the Offing have the new paramount like the smartest gang of the city at least until the promised billions are revealed in cuts and more hard decisions. For this purpose, in her second session with the press in a week, CEO Ellison and his top brass by Company Prez Jeff Shell, the streaming manager Cindy Holland (who was not at the NYC event), the TV boss George Cheeks, film Duo Dana Goldberg and Josh Greenstein (who also looked at the NYC press today.
When Ellison the overall picture and what remains, can be sold or closed, it kept it up to be great, not to be relaxed and “to hold the company together and to persuade the possibilities of AI. Focus on a technically controlled and redundancy, which cuts” better experience for the user “on streaming platforms and much more.
As expected on Wednesday, there was a standard distraction from Ellison and his top team as well as the strong use of the term “excited”. According to Ellison, his publicly traded company would not play his paramount the game “rumors and speculations”, but with rumors about a deeper relationship with long -time buddy Tom Cruise there was certainly a nice tribute to the star and the upcoming Top weapon 3.
Because that's what studio bosses do.
