On August 27, 2026, the state attorneys general for Iowa and Montana asked the U.S. Supreme Court to block what they termed California’s "politicized" lawsuit, which aims to stop the merger between Paramount and Warner Bros. Discovery. Earlier the same day, the Block the Merger Coalition launched a petition urging 12 state attorneys general to reject "empty concessions" from Paramount and maintain their opposition to the company's proposed $110 billion merger with Warner Bros. This activity unfolds as Paramount continues to pursue the "controversial and yearslong" $111 billion merger, which has faced antitrust lawsuits from several states, including its current home of California, sparking speculation that David Ellison might consider relocating Paramount outside of the state. Previously on August 27, California Attorney General Rob Bonta stated that settlement talks with Paramount executives "very possible" could resume, after he canceled them on August 24, alleging Paramount was "playing games" through media leaks.
