The value of the deal was not disclosed.
DailyMail.com has reached out to Cullors for comment. Warner Bros declined to comment.
The BLM activist posted a message on Instagram just days ago accusing the media of 'lying' about her.
'For the last 2.5 years I’ve been relentlessly attacked by the media. So many lies and so much mis and disinformation. They are hell bent on destroying my life,' she wrote. 'Even though I’ve not been at BLM since 2021 my face continues to be used to spread so many untruths. I’m exhausted and I fear for my life daily. The worst is so many people have just stayed silent.

Cullors became a co-founder of BLM in 2013 before stepping down in 2021. The movement started in courtyard of her Los Angeles home a decade ago.
Now, Black Lives Matter's national organization is at risk of going bankrupt after its finances plunged $8.5million into the red last year - while simultaneously handing multiple staff seven-figure salaries.
Financial disclosures obtained by The Washington Free Beacon show the perilous state of BLM's Global Network Foundation, which officially emerged in November 2020, as a more formal way of structuring the civil rights movement.
Yet, despite the financial controversy and scrutiny, BLM GNF continued to hire relatives of Cullors, and several board members.
Cullors' brother, Paul Cullors, set up two companies which were paid $1.6million providing 'professional security services' for Black Lives Matter in 2022.

Bowers, who took over from Cullors when she resigned, also benefitted handsomely from the group: in 2022, his consultancy firm was paid $1.7million for management and consulting services, the Free Beacon reported.
And the sister of former Black Lives Matter board member Raymond Howard was also employed in a lucrative role as a consultant.
Danielle Edwards's firm, New Impact Partners, was paid $1.1million for consulting services in 2022, the Free Beacon said.

Donations plunged by 88 percent between 2021 and 2022, from $77million to just $9.3million for the most recent financial year.
A year later, in May 2022, it was revealed Black Lives Matter spent more than $12million on luxury properties in Los Angeles and in Toronto - including a $6.3million 10,000-square-foot property in Canada that was purchased as part of a $8million 'out of country grant.'
The Toronto property was bought with grant money that was meant for 'activities to educate and support black communities, and to purchase and renovate property for charitable use.'
The group had said it was planning to use the property as main headquarters in Canada, and it has now been named the Wilseed Center for Arts and Activism.
Commentary:
I smile and laugh at all the corporations that jumped on the Woke train and got scammed out of so much money.
What a bunch of virtue signaling suckers.
Corporations, Hollywood and Maoist/Marxist Democrats all jumped on the BLM bandwagon, just as Biden and who he hires in the White House. When it comes to hiring the brightest and best Joe and is Maoist/Marxist Democrat friends don't know what that means. They're all a bunch of virtue signaling suckers.
Cullors is just another social justice warrior con artist shaking down American corporations. The person who set up tis deal and the Warner Bros. CEO should be fired wasting the company's money.
