Warner Bros. Discovery revealed the corporate names and leadership for its two future entities as it gears up for a mid-2026 split.
- The streaming and studios division will be named “Warner Bros.,” encompassing DC Studios, HBO Max, and movie properties.
- The global networks segment will be called “Discovery Global,” including CNN, TNT Sports, Discovery, Discovery+, and Bleacher Report.
WBD President and CEO David Zaslav highlighted the company’s progress in building a profitable global streaming service and revitalizing its studios. The split, announced last month, aims to adapt to shifting consumer preferences from cable to streaming, mirroring Comcast’s upcoming spinoff of cable assets like CNBC.
The move will create two publicly traded companies.
