Interviews: CEO of Viacom talks streaming services, selling Cloverfield Paradox and Nickelodeon’s future programs

Viacom’s CEO Bob Bakish said selling Cloverfield Paradox, originally under Paramount to Netflix was the best bet for success. He said airing the spot during the Super Bowl was a “one off.” They would most likely not sell a work that huge again.

In other news, Bakish mentioned that the company will “continue to look broadly at opportunities for creative thinking and ways to create more value.” This includes more creative content for Nickelodeon’s original programming and increases in streaming services on all platforms for its content.
