Regal CEO Backs Paramount-WBD Merger, Urges End to Prolonged Antitrust Fight
Regal Cinemas CEO Eduardo Acuna publicly supports the Paramount-WBD merger, arguing that a lengthy antitrust trial would be damaging to exhibitors and the industry; he cites Paramount CEO David Ellison's commitments—at least 30 theatrical releases annually with a 45-day PVOD window and 90-day SVOD window for three years—and a willingness to enter a consent decree with state AGs as reasons to move forward.
