Warner Bros. Discovery Rebrands Max to HBO Max
Digest more
Max will become HBO Max again this summer, Warner Bros. Discovery said this week — two years after the name change that hasn't stuck. Here's what to know about the rebrand (and some others of note).
Warner Bros. Discovery is changing the name of its streaming platform back to its original name, HBO Max. Launched in 2020, HBO Max changed its name to just Max in 2023, after a merger between Warner Media and Discovery, Inc. in 2022.
Max is ditching the “Max” name and going back to HBO Max this summer—less than two years after switching it up. This will be the second time the service has changed its name in just three years—first launched as HBO Max in 2020, replacing HBO Now and separate from HBO Go. The company is focusing on high-quality TV over a massive library.
