HBO Max, WarnerMedia’s new streaming service, is launching in May for $14.99 a month

CNN  

New York CNN Business — After a year of hype and anticipation, HBO Max finally had its Hollywood premiere on Tuesday. HBO’s hit shows, Warner Bros. blockbusters and bingeable television classics like “Friends” and “The Big Bang Theory” will be on the platform, contributing to the more than 10,000 hours of programming. A crowded streaming market HBO Max has been a major priority for WarnerMedia and its parent company AT&T since the telecom giant completed its acquisition of Time Warner last summer in an $85 billion deal. The service will host children’s programming from Looney Tunes, Hanna-Barbera, Cartoon Network and “Sesame Street.” It will have new series called “Max Originals,” beloved shows like “The West Wing,” “Rick and Morty,” “Pretty Little Liars” and “The Fresh Prince of Bel Air” as well as other series from the company’s cable brands like TNT and TBS. It will include classics like “2001: A Space Odyssey,” franchises like “The Lord of the Rings” and every DC film including “Joker.” And HBO Max is working with some big names behind the camera too.
