Netflix’s Quiet Gambit: Delaying WBD Deal to Block Paramount Skydance

A new Wall Street theory suggests Netflix may be leveraging its Warner Bros. Discovery deal not to win the company, but to block Paramount Skydance by dragging out antitrust review and time the spin-off of Global Networks, potentially enabling Netflix to scoop Warner IP while PSky’s bid faces regulatory hurdles. Netflix denies the tactic, saying it is already in process with the DoJ and EU regulators as both sides move forward with filings, but the bid and regulatory fight leave the outcome uncertain.

Dunk and Egg Bring a Quiet, Grounded Westeros to Life in HBO’s New Spinoff

HBO’s six-episode spinoff A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms adapts George R.R. Martin’s Dunk and Egg novellas into a smaller-scale, character-driven Westeros tale set about 70 years after House of the Dragon. Centering Dunk, a low-born hedge knight, and his squire Egg, the show emphasizes ordinariness, loyalty, and humor over epic battles, with a limited budget and scope that the creators describe as “Game of Thrones without all the stuff.” Season 2 is already in production for 2027, adapting The Sworn Sword, as Parker aims to deepen Egg’s coming-of-age story and stay faithful to the source material.
