Exclusive: Another big streamer sale of a finished film!

With streamers like Hulu in on the bidding, Paramount+ and Showtime won with a deal north of $20 million. That is a healthy profit over the budget.

Her creation ends up scamming millions of dollars from big food companies while delivering deals to millions of fellow coupon clippers.
