50 Cent weighed in on the brewing Netflix and Paramount battle over Warner Bros Discovery after a massive $108.4 billion bidding war erupted.
The rapper posted an AI-generated image of himself leading a boardroom meeting of executives, pointing to a poster for his hit documentary, Sean Combs: The Reckoning. The post comes as Paramount launched a hostile $108.4 billion bid to buy Warner Bros Discovery, just days after Netflix agreed to acquire the company for $82.7 billion. Paramount’s all-cash offer of $30 per share provides shareholders $18 billion more than Netflix’s deal.
50’s Netflix documentary dethroned Stranger Things from the #1 spot on the streaming platform. The four-part series has dominated Netflix charts since its December 2nd release, proving 50 Cent’s content draws massive audiences. The documentary earned a 7.6 rating on IMDb with nearly 3,000 reviews and an 83% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. 50 Cent’s strategic social media post positions him perfectly regardless of which company wins.
