Ellison Says Skydance Will Keep Backing Original Films in the Vein of 'Sinners'

David Ellison, co-chief executive of Skydance, said the company plans to keep making original films of the kind represented by "Sinners." He said the company's debt of $80 billion will not stop it from backing projects that are not guaranteed to succeed. His comments point to new, original work as part of the studio's slate for the film industry that is based here. Ellison did not tie the plans to any specific titles beyond the film he named.
