National Amusements: brands it owns and its ownership tree
National Amusements is a privately held company headquartered in the United States that is tracked here as an owner of consumer businesses, and has 1 recorded transaction.[1]
National Amusements is the Redstone family holding company that controlled Paramount Global through its majority of the voting shares. Its control ended when Skydance acquired it as part of the transactions that created Paramount Skydance in August 2025.
Skydance Media, controlled by the Ellison family, combined with Paramount Global to form Paramount Skydance Corporation, ending the control National Amusements and the Redstone family had held over CBS and Paramount Pictures. Paramount Class A holders could take $23.00 in cash a share and Class B holders $15.00, and because the deal transferred control of CBS's television station licences it needed the consent of the Federal Communications Commission, which granted it over one commissioner's dissent.
