California Attorney General Rob Bonta is seeking significant structural remedies from Paramount CEO David Ellison to settle an antitrust lawsuit concerning Paramount's acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery. The lawsuit, filed by 12 state attorneys general, alleges the merger would give the combined company control over one-third of major films and cable TV programming, potentially harming competition and consumers. Despite support from major movie theater chains after concessions from Ellison, Bonta insists any settlement must address the core anticompetitive concerns. A trial is set for March 2027, and if no settlement is reached by October 1, Paramount faces a $7 million daily penalty until the deal closes.
