Canal+ didn't say it was going to close Ciné+, it's not part of their plans at this point. Some people are guessing it will happen down the line but not before a few years.
Canal+ plans to submit their bid to buy OCS to the antitrust regulator before summer but there's no set timeline as to what will happen for now. A closure of the OCS channels and the transfer of the subscriber base towards a new version of Canal's Ciné-Series package (including Ciné+) could happen since they're both around the same price and offer the same type of content. The regulator could force Canal+ to keep the OCS channels running for a few years though.
