It may not be long before the troubled MGM studio is forced by its creditors to seek a buyer. That’s the word coming out of a Nov. 4 meeting between MGM CEO Stephen Cooper and the debt-hobbled film company’s 140-member creditor committee.
According to one source with knowledge of the meeting, the creditor group turned thumbs down on Cooper’s proposal to convert the studio’s $3.7 billion debt into equity as part of a restructuring plan to keep the studio out of bankruptcy.
