News Corp., Time Warner and Qualia Capital LLC are interested in buying the MGM film studio, which said last week that it is considering a possible sale of the company, Bloomberg reports, citing sources.

The home of the James Bond franchise has about $4 billion in debt, but an analyst said it is unlikely to get more than $2 billion.

Sony Corp. may also be interested in buying at least part of the company; Lions Gate Entertainment has already expressed interest and Liberty Media Corp. has also said it will at least take a look.
