Could be, but I think that Skydance will probably never listen to Barry Meyer.
Former Warner Bros. CEO Barry Meyer says Skydance’s new leadership must prioritize investing in creativity, arguing that content (not distribution) is where the real value lies:

As a cartoon fan it's your duty to watch classic animated IPs owned by Universal like Felix the Cat since he was the first cartoon star before Mickey Mouse and Bugs Bunny. He deserves to be treated well since he doesn't have new animated content since 2004.
