Discovery, the parent company of HBO, CNN, and major movie franchises like Harry Potter and the DC Universe, officially confirmed this week that it is open to a sale. The company has already received multiple offers, but wouldn’t disclose any of the parties bidding for its assets; potential acquirers reportedly include Paramount Skydance, Netflix, Comcast, Amazon and Apple—a who’s who of the modern streaming landscape.
