Ted Sarandos Responds to James Cameron's Criticism and Paramount's Disinformation Campaign

Ted Sarandos expressed his disappointment with James Cameron's negative comments about Netflix potentially acquiring Warner Bros' assets. Sarandos clarified that he had personally met with Cameron in December and assured him of Netflix's 45-day commitment to theatrical releases. He emphasized that he never mentioned a 17-day release window and had publicly discussed the 45-day commitment multiple times. Sarandos felt betrayed by Cameron's involvement in Paramount's disinformation campaign against Netflix's bid for Warner Bros' assets. Despite the disagreement, Paramount is set to release Cameron's upcoming film, "Hit Me Hard and Soft," featuring Billie Eilish in concert in May.
