California AG says Paramount-Warner Bros merger would 'extinguish competition'<body><p>STORY: :: California and 11 states are suing to block Paramount's $110 billion acquisition of Warner Bros</p><p>:: Los Angeles, California / July 13, 2026</p><p>:: Rob Bonta, California Attorney General</p><p>"We're here, I'm here to announce a lawsuit that I filed, and that a coalition of 12 states have filed challenging the proposed merger of Paramount, Skydance and Warner Brothers Discovery and asking the court to block the merger from moving forward." // "This $110 billion proposed merger, the largest merger in Hollywood history, would extinguish competition. It would result in higher prices, lower content quality and fewer movies and TV shows." // As our complaint makes clear, this deal is illegal under the Clayton Act. That is a law that has been on the books for over 100 years. It prevents mergers that may substantially lessen competition or tend to create a monopoly."</p><p>The lawsuit is a serious threat to Paramount CEO David Ellison's bid to transform his company into a major competitor to Netflix and Disney.</p><p>If allowed to move forward with the deal, Paramount would control 27% of the distribution market for films that appear on screens across America, 30% of blockbuster film distribution and 27% of the market for basic cable channels, the states said.</p><p>It will likely take months for a ruling on the states' claims, causing a delay that could rack up hundreds of millions of dollars in costs for Paramount.</p><p>The deal has led to an outcry from actors, writers, and others fearing it will hurt jobs. Theater owners also opposed the deal, worrying the combination of the Warner Bros movie studio with Paramount Pictures would result in fewer films.</p><p>Paramount said the lawsuit distorts settled antitrust law and is based on a misrepresentation of competition in the entertainment industry.</p></body>
