Looks like some things stayed with Hasbro but I doubt G.R. is one of those.

Interesting changes!
Lionsgate ( The Hunger Games ) has successfully completed its acquisition of global entertainment platform eOne (Entertainment One ), owned by Hasbro , announced in August last year. This strategic move adds 6,500 film and television titles to Lionsgate 's already extensive catalog . In a press release, the company stated: “This merger diversifies and strengthens the scripted and non-scripted television businesses. In addition, it expands our portfolio of brands and franchises, making us more present in Canada and the United Kingdom with the new titles.”
A notable inclusion in this transaction is the film development rights to Hasbro 's iconic Monopoly brand . In addition , Lionsgate will now be responsible for the production of renowned series such as ABC 's The Rookie , Showtime 's Yellowjackets and Discovery 's reality star Naked and Afraid , which already has 16 seasons.
According to a statement from Deadline, it was confirmed that most of Hasbro 's intellectual properties focused on familiar brands will remain under the toymaker's control. These properties include animated projects such as Peppa Pig , Transformers: EarthSpark and My Little Pony : Tell Your Tale .
First, nice find Maria!Hasbro 's creative development and business affairs team has been restructured under the name Hasbro Entertainment. This team will lead projects and franchise development, including household names such as GI Joe , Play-Doh , Dungeons & Dragons , Power Rangers and the company's diverse portfolio of board games .
