Melrose Gate entrance to Paramount Pictures in Los Angeles, CA - Will the studios be sold in the end? More billionaires and private equity funds have shown interest to buy Paramount Global (NASDAQ:PARA) (NASDAQ:PARAA) or buy the control of Paramount Global via a purchase of National Amusements (NAI), the family vehicle of the Redstone family. Since my previous article on the possible Paramount Global takeover, focused on the Sony-Apollo deal, quite a number of things have changed. Sony-Apollo have now signed an NDA and they are looking at a different way to structure a potential bid.
