LONDON, Jan 16 (Reuters) – British culture minister Lisa Nandy met Paramount SkyDance chief executive David Ellison this week to discuss issues affecting the UK's film and television sector, a source familiar with the matter told Reuters on Friday. The talks, which the source said occurred on Thursday, come as Ellison is steering Paramount through a high-stakes battle for Warner Bros Discovery. Paramount did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The meeting occurred the same day of a U.S. judge's decision rejecting Paramount's bid to fast-track its lawsuit against Warner Bros over disclosures tied to the U.S. studio's planned sale to Netflix. Paramount is trying to persuade Warner Bros shareholders to back its $30-per-share all-cash tender offer instead of Netflix's lower cash-and-stock deal, and has moved to nominate directors to the Warner Bros board to press for negotiations.
