The film includes evidence that the prisoners captured on their cell phones, which were smuggled in and sold to them by prison guards. Plus, after turning down Paramount’s latest buyout offer, Warner Bros CEO David Zaslav is teasing a Christmas announcement about the company’s future. With Comcast, Netflix, and Amazon rumored to be circling, questions over FCC approval and strategic stakes loom large.
