Private equity firm Apollo Global Management reportedly has made an $11-billion bid for Paramount Global's film and TV studio but not its linear networks.
Private equity firm Apollo Global Management reportedly has offered to purchase Paramount Global's film and TV studio for $11 billion. The Wall Street Journal reported the news of Apollo's bid on Wednesday. The New York-based company is the latest to make a play for Paramount, getting in line behind David Zaslav's Warner Bros.

Currently, Paramount’s television studio is housed within the CBS division. The TV studio produces 70 programs for broadcast network, cable television and streaming platforms, including the company’s Paramount+, which Chief Executive Bob Bakish has championed as the future.
