The Buyer Names the Baby

Juno: the Paramount and Warner Bros. merger is named Skydance! Mochi: Skydance was the production company behind Top Gun: Maverick. The Rust Baron: they renamed the movies! Queen Honeycomb: no, Ellison says the name must overshadow neither studio, and both keep their names. Tock: Skydance bought Paramount in August 2025. Juno: the buyer gets to name the baby.

The name going over Paramount and Warner Bros., which Ellison says shaped over a century of culture, is that of the production company behind the Mission: Impossible films and Top Gun: Maverick, which bought Paramount in August 2025; Ellison says the name was chosen so that no new corporate identity would overshadow either studio, and calls the result a creative-first home for bold, quality storytelling.
