$500 Million Exit: David Zaslav Is Leaving Warner Bros. a Rich Man — but He’d Love to Stay Around Even Longer

David Zaslav is leaving Warner Bros. a very rich man after selling the historic studio to Paramount in a deal that is upending Hollywood.

According to this source, David Zaslav may be leaving Warner Bros. Discovery for good.

And just so you know, he's actually been CEO since before we had the Hub Network in 2010. And now, with him gone, our chance of losing all those Hasbro shows from the current Discovery Family Channel has sharply increased!

Thread 'WBD Acquisition Thread'

Jan 9, 2026

Due to moderator issued off topic warning, I think that is best interest to create a separate thread to discuss about those acquisition, including hostile takeover and whichever company buy linear TV asset. That would allow to compare between Netflix and Skydance (Paramount) without cross between two threads.

Remember, this thread is all about acquisition related, if you want talk about WB or Paramount that is no relation to acquisition, please take to WB or Skydance (Paramount) thread, depending on topic.

I'm going to take few quotes from other thread.

They would have been better...
