After finally getting approval from the Federal Communications Commission, Skydance Media is just weeks away from completing its $8-billion merger with Paramount Global, leading to sweeping changes for some of the most iconic media brands.

In just under two weeks, Paramount Global will complete its merger with the smaller Skydance Media to form “ Paramount Skydance Corp.” — and bring a rollercoaster M&A ride to its conclusion. The FCC cleared the Skydance-Paramount deal Thursday, removing the last regulatory obstacle.

Paramount Global said on Friday it expects to complete its merger with Skydance Media by August 7, following government approval for the $8.4 billion deal. After the deal closes, the company will be renamed Paramount Skydance Corp and its Class B shares will trade under the ticker symbol PSKY.
