Mark Ruffalo doesn’t agree with James Cameron’s warning to Congress about Netflix potentially buying Warner Bros. Cameron argued this deal would harm the film industry in a letter to Senator Mike Lee, who sits on the antitrust committee. However, Ruffalo wonders if Cameron would feel the same way if Paramount were to buy Warner Bros. He posted on Threads, suggesting someone ask Cameron if he’d oppose a Paramount acquisition too, or if his concern is specifically about Netflix. Ruffalo believes it’s important to know if Senator Lee shares the same concerns about a potential Paramount deal as he does about the Netflix one, and feels this question should be asked right away.
Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos responded to James Cameron, expressing his respect for Cameron’s work but disagreeing with a letter Cameron sent. Sarandos stated that the letter inaccurately portrayed Netflix’s commitment to showing Warner Bros. films in theaters. He confirmed he’d previously assured both Cameron and Warner Bros. CEO Ann Lee of a 45-day theatrical release window. Sarandos also argued that if Paramount Skydance were to acquire Warner Bros. instead of Netflix, it would likely reduce spending in the film industry by around $16 billion to finance the purchase. Currently, Paramount Skydance is still negotiating with Warner Bros., with a shareholder vote scheduled for March. As of now, it appears Netflix is the only party satisfied with the existing arrangement.
