Paramount is laying off 15% of its staff, or about 2,000 people, in a major cost-cutting aimed at finding $500 million in annual cost savings.

Paramount Global launched a deep round of staff cuts Tuesday, a move aimed at eliminating nearly 2,000 jobs by year's end as the company prepares for a new ownership regime. Company leaders announced last week they would reduce Paramount's U.S.-based workforce by 15% in an effort to save $500 million in annualized costs. On Tuesday, the company's leaders said affected employees would be notified in three phases 'starting today and continuing through the end of the year.

Ellison’s proposed Paramount takeover is a two-step process. First, his group will buy the Redstone family holding company, National Amusements Inc., which would give the Redstone family an exit from the movie business after more than 80 years. The late mogul Sumner Redstone acquired the company, then known as Viacom, in 1987. He added the prestigious Paramount movie studio seven years later. The Skydance deal currently earmarks $2.4 billion to buy National Amusements.
