Shari Redstone, chair of Paramount Global, attends the Allen & Co. Media and Technology Conference in Sun Valley, Idaho, on Tuesday, July 11, 2023.
The consortium has been waiting for word from Paramount's special committee on whether the panel will recommend its bid to acquire the company to Redstone.
Spokespeople for Skydance, Redstone's National Amusements and Paramount's special committee declined to comment on Friday.
Previously, Redstone rejected an offer by Apollo in favor of exclusive talks with Skydance.
Redstone has preferred a deal that would keep Paramount together, as Skydance's offer would, CNBC previously reported.
