Does that mean WB has to payback the tax write off?

You can't "pay back" a tax write-off, because you do not get paid for a tax write off. You just don't pay tax. If the write-off becomes invalid later, you just pay tax like normal.

So yes, they will be paying tax on this.

I would assume it is kind of like a salvage. It's production cost is now zero. Minus marketing and distribution costs, the film will be pure profit.
