  • The studio confirms it is no longer working with Birtcher Development on the 34-acre site that would feature film and television soundstages and an $8.5 billion production spend.

Warner Bros. Discovery has decided to scale back its ambitious plans for a new studio lot complex in Nevada, known as "The Ranch."
