The first of these two companies is tentatively dubbed "Streaming & Studios," though it will almost certainly maintain the Warner Bros. name. This company will comprise Warner Bros. Television, Warner Bros. Motion Picture Group, DC Studios, HBO and the streaming service HBO Max, along with these brands' existing film and television libraries.
HBO Max will soon be splitting from CNN after parent company Warner Bros. Discovery announced it will be breaking up into two separate publicly traded companies, one focused around streaming and the other on traditional television broadcasting.
The film and television giant will turn its cable networks, including CNN and TNT, into one company and its streaming and studios business into another.
Warner Bros. Discovery will split into two companies by next year, with much of its streaming and movie production moving under one company and its live sports and news to another, according to the Washington Post .
Stop me if you've heard this before: one of them sounds mostly like Warner Bros., the other mostly sounds like Discovery.
