WarnerMedia has made the first official announcement of its upcoming streaming service, which will be called HBO Max, offering programming from HBO and other Warner properties including Warner Bros., New Line, DC Entertainment, CNN, TNT, TBS, truTV, The CW, Turner Classic Movies, Cartoon Network, Adult Swim, Crunchyroll, Rooster Teeth, and Looney Tunes.
Geek shows on the service will include Batwoman and Katy Keene, which are both premiering on The CW this year.
Originals will include Dune: The Sisterhood (see "’Dune: The Sisterhood’ TV Series") and a new animated Gremlins series.
Anchor rerun programming will include the full run of Friends, which will move from Netflix.
The trailer for the new service briefly flashed Doom Patrol, an original series from the DC Universe streaming service, although io9 reported that Warner Bros. confirmed that DC Universe will not change, which may indicate that DC Universe programming will appear on HBO Max after first appearing on DC Universe.
Pricing for the HBO Max has not been announced, but it’s expected to be somewhat north of the $14.99 the company is currently charging for the stand-alone HBO over-the-top service.
