Netflix与Xbox影视IP授权谈判破裂

Netflix's former chief content officer Bela Bajaria offered Xbox $500 million over seven years for exclusive film and TV adaptation rights to its IP. Xbox CEO Asha Sharma and her team countered at $800 million over the same period, but before any deal was reached, Bajaria left the company as Netflix announced 1,000 layoffs. According to Matthew Belloni, the deal is now entirely off the table with Bajaria gone.

Netflix offered Microsoft $500 million for seven years of exclusive film and TV rights to Xbox titles, but Xbox CEO Asha Sharma and its business affairs team countered at $800 million, prompting Netflix to rescind the offer, according to Puck News reporter Matthew Belloni. Xbox said it has received "record-breaking interest" in its IP and still values Netflix as a partner, while now pursuing smaller deals with more partners. Those include a Diablo animated series at Netflix, another season of Fallout at Prime Video, a Call of Duty movie at Paramount, and a sequel to A Minecraft Movie at Warner Bros. Pictures.
