"Ariana’s team are negotiating a huge deal between a number of big hitters, with Netflix and YouTube both showing interest", a music insider told The Sun, "Netflix has put forward a starting offer of £4million to get the rights. The deal is being negotiated by Ari’s closest advisers, led by Scooter Braun."[4] After teasing photos on Instagram, Grande officially announced the release of the film on December 9, 2020 via her social media with a heartfelt message to her fans.
