Big names in Hollywood are worried. They think Netflix buying Warner Bros. Discovery could shake things up in a big way. They sent a letter to Congress, but they didn't sign it. Why? They're scared of what Netflix might do to them.
These filmmakers think Netflix could hurt movie theaters. They say Netflix might make movies available to stream way too soon. This could mean fewer people go to theaters. And that's bad news for everyone who works in movies.
Netflix has said before that theaters aren't their thing. They're all about streaming. But if they own Warner Bros. , they could have a lot of power. They could decide how long movies stay in theaters. And that could mean less money for everyone else.
The letter asks Congress to pay close attention. They want them to make sure Netflix doesn't do anything bad. They say millions of jobs and a beloved art form are at stake.
But Netflix and Warner Bros. Discovery aren't saying much. They didn't comment on the letter. And other companies like Comcast and Paramount are also interested in buying Warner Bros. They might have different plans.
It's a big deal. And everyone is watching to see what happens next.
