- Warner Bros. Discovery will soon be Warner Bros. and Discovery Global
- HBO Max and Discovery+ will be divided under the new corporate entities
- TNT Sports, Bleacher Reports and CNN will move to Discovery Global
Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD) will soon be Warner Bros. once again. After the announcement in early June that the media company would separate in two, WBD has revealed the new corporate names of its new businesses.
As he did with HBO Max at the beginning of the month, which changed HBO Max after a period of two years as Max (which could forget the meme of Spider-Men’s men that HBO Max Marketing Director Max, Shauna Spenley, shared during the announcement of change), WBD returns to the name that is more commonly known as.

The change will enter into force in mid -2016 and will see Warner Bros. become the home of Warner Bros. Television, Warner Bros. Motion Picture Group, DC Studios, HBO, HBO Max and Warner Bros. Gaming Studios, as well as the legendary film and the TV content of the study.
Meanwhile, the newly formed Discovery Global will include CNN television networks, TNT Sports in the USA., Discovery and some free channels in Europe, such as Quest and Food Network, as well as transmission services such as Discovery+ and The Bleacher Report (B/R).
Indeed, the division means that Warner Bros. will house all the main services and transmission studies of WBD, while Discovery Global will become the place for entertainment networks, sports and first level news.
The decision to divide Warner Bros. and Discovery Global is similar to the Spirar Comcast Plan the NBCuniversal cable portfolio into a new company called Versant. Like Warner Bros., NBCU will be the new home of its studies, the Peacock transmission service and NBC and Bravo networks.
What does Warner Bros. and Discovery Global Split mean for subscribers?
The decline of linear television is no secret. Since the introduction of the best transmission services, the content on request has grown significantly in popularity, particularly because of its accessibility, flexible prices and convenience.
That left left -wing cable networks to tempt viewers, and as a result, many media companies have launched their own transmission services to counteract the decrease in profits and help balance financial tension.
One way to help compensate for this debt is to restructure a business, which is exactly what WBD has done, dividing its cable networks loaded with its most profitable assets, including its HBO Max transmission service.
However, the movement also means that its other transmission platforms, Discovery+ and CNN (not the service that was closed in 2022, but the new one that will be launched at the end of this year), will now be part of Discovery Global. While the platform, which is known for the entertainment of real life and includes network content such as Magnolia Network, HGTV, Food Network, TLC, ID, Animal Planet and Discovery Channel, will continue to be independent, subscribers can expect some changes in the content they see.
The greatest potential change is that HBO Max will probably be home to the sports content of its TNT sports and bleaching networks in the United States. That will probably be the same for the CNN content that is currently available in HBO Max, although WBD has said that CNN Max will remain, despite the launch of its new independent service).
However, although that is not yet confirmed for those in the USA.
It is not yet clear how the division will affect the content you see in HBO Max and Discovery+, but taking into account that both platforms have been merging part of their content in the years elapsed since Warnermedia merged with Discovery, there will surely be some changes in subscribers next year as the two companies separate.
