The rapper and business mogul, known as Ye, was dropped by the major Hollywood talent agency on Monday.
A representative from the agency told CNBC that he was not a client of the rapper.
A documentary about the artist was going to be dropped by the film studio. The company was behind films such as "Knives Out" and "Ozark."
CNBC reached out to Ye's lawyers.
As Adidas faces calls to end its relationship with Ye, it has moved.
Three legal organizations wrote letters to the German company to cut ties with Ye because of his antisemitic comments. One of the few remaining partnerships is with Adidas, after he was let go by Balenciaga. He ended his relationship with the bank. He had previously ended his relationship with GAP.
The International Legal Forum, an organization representing more than 4,000 attorneys and activists, is calling on you to end your silence, condemnKanye's antisemitism, and end your relationship with him.
Ye has made fun of Adidas. West said in the video that he could say antisemitic things to Adidas.
The executive director of Stop Antisemitism.org asked the Adidas executive if she could. Can you say anything, or will you stop making money off bigotry towards Jews?
Last week, the Anti-Defamation League wrote a letter to Adidas urging them to end their relationship with the artist. The ADL put together a list of harmful comments made by Ye.
CNBC has been reaching out to Adidas. The company said the relationship is under review.
It's possible that Adidas will make a move in the near future.
"We may be at the point where Adidas can't tolerate it anymore, because they did overlook a lot of nonsense over the years."
According to Swartz, his relationship with Adidas has earned the company $2 billion a year.
In the past, companies have been tolerant of Ye's behavior, even though he was diagnosed with a mental illness.
He was blocked on social media for his antisemitic comments. He agreed to buy Parler.
