FILE - In this Jan. 24, 2020 file photo, Jeffrey Katzenberg poses for a portrait to promote "Quibi" at the Music Lodge during the Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah.

It announced it was shutting down in October, just six months after its April launch. (Photo by Taylor Jewell/Invision/AP, File)
