Paramount is considering Elon Musk as a potential equity investor, Semafor reports. The report does not specify a stake size or investment amount.
The idea surfaces as Paramount's merger remains stuck over state-level regulatory resistance, particularly from New York and California.
Bringing in Musk as an investor does not change that picture. He carries his own regulatory complexities, and an equity injection from him is unlikely to ease the antitrust objections that have held up the deal or improve its chances of clearing.
