Paramount Promises “Significant” Movie Releases Despite Ongoing Strike

The Big Picture

  • Despite the ongoing strikes in Hollywood, Paramount remains optimistic about a speedy resolution and has discussed the potential impacts on their business operations.
  • Paramount has successfully completed a number of highly-anticipated projects, but their promotional campaigns may be affected by contractual limitations that prevent stars from promoting their performances.
  • Paramount CEO Bob Bakish expressed confidence in their immediate future and highlighted completed films such as “Killers of the Flower Moon,” “Bob Marley,” and “A Quiet Place: Day One.” Paramount is also taking steps to minimize the strike’s impact on consumers.




Despite the ongoing strikes in Hollywood, the studios remain bullish about their prospects, thanks to a slate of completed projects. Paramount Global held its second-quarter earnings call on Tuesday, joining other major media corporations in discussing the work stoppages caused by the ongoing writers and actors strikes in Hollywood. The company’s executives expressed optimism for a swift resolution and also addressed the potential impacts of the strikes on their business operations.



The good news for consumers is that Paramount has a number of highly-anticipated projects that are already completed and ready for release. However, these projects may have slightly altered promotional campaigns since the stars are unable to promote their performances due to contractual limitations imposed by their unions.


Some of the high-profile films include “Killers of the Flower Moon,” an awards contender directed by Martin Scorsese, “Bob Marley,” directed by John Krasinski, “Dear Santa,” a holiday comedy starring Jack Black, and “A Quiet Place: Day One,” a prequel to Krasinski’s 2018 film “A Quiet Place” set during the initial hours of the alien invasion.
