Warner Bros. Discovery is putting some of the “premium” back into its premium cable outlet, HBO.
In a branding strategy shift, several tentpole series that had been announced as original shows for streamer Max — including the in-development Harry Potter series and It prequel Welcome to Derry — will become HBO originals instead. The just-ordered Lanterns, based on DC Comics’ Green Lantern, was also first developed for Max but will now originate on HBO.
Those series will of course still stream on Max, as all HBO shows do. But the decision to bring the high-visibility, high-budget shows under the HBO umbrella represents a change in approach to how the two outlets, both headed by Casey Bloys, differentiate their programming.
When Bloys took charge of what was then HBO Max in 2020, the streamer was to be the home of all series based on pre-existing IP from Warner Bros. (in addition to shows like...

To paraphrase a long-running network slogan, “It’s Not Max. It’s HBO.” HBO and Max content CEO Casey Bloys is changing the delineation between what an “HBO show” and a “Max show” is, moving most of Max’s upcoming big-budget, tentpole Warner Bros. IP projects to under the HBO umbrella.
That means the upcoming “Harry Potter” TV show, as well as the “It” prequel series “Welcome to Derry” and the just-announced Green Lantern adaptation “Lanterns” — in other words, major DC franchise and other big-budget titles — will all now be branded as HBO originals.
This is a switch from the most recent decision to place all series based on Warner Bros. IP in the Max bucket, which was first established when Bloys added oversight of Max in 2020.

This is a highly competitive filmmaking industry, and there are often numerous obstacles that must be overcome in order to bring a project to life. Few, however, have faced a far more daunting challenge than the team behind the HBO Max series Tokyo Vice. The behind-the-scenes making of this project—created by J. T. Rogers—is a truly inspiring tale that merits a drama series of its own.
Starring Ansel Elgort and Ken Watanabe, the crime drama series aired its second season in February of this year. The show’s plot revolves around an American journalist ( Jake Adelstein) stationed in Tokyo who, with the help of a seasoned detective, tracks down the city’s yakuza-run criminal underworld.

Tokyo Vice season 2 has fans on the edge of their seats, since its release in February 2024. As the second season’s plot unravels, the show’s producer Alan Poul, and other crew members are sharing just how they managed to film its second installment in some of Japan’s most difficult-to-access locations.
In a thrilling revelation, the showrunners divulged that a potential yakuza member had paid a visit to the Tokyo Vice set when they were filming in Tokyo’s historic Akasaka district. However, the HBO Max series had already prepared for a dodgy occasion such as this.

Tokyo Vice is back with its highly anticipated season two. Not only are fans and critics describing the second venture as highly addictive and better than its first season. Yet apart from its entertaining and intriguing dive into the Japanese Yakuza culture, the crime show has been hailed for shooting the mixed language show in the land of the Rising Sun itself.

While many shows or movies would avoid filming in the country, using soundstages instead, the Ansel Elgort-starrer series is receiving praise for showing and covering the real Tokyo. But doing so was a mammoth of a task, yet even more difficult was shooting one real-life element that became absolutely crucial for the HBO show.

From the moment the Max team took on Tokyo Vice, their determination was to ensure authenticity and to accurately portray the essence of the story. Thus, what better way to showcase Tokyo Vice than by shooting it in Japan? Although it may have initially sounded like a thrilling adventure, it turned out to be one of the most challenging aspects of the project for the team.

When the skies cleared above Tokyo’s historic Akasaka district late one evening in March 2023, no one in the city of 37 million people could have been more relieved than Masanori Aikawa, the tireless location manager employed by Warner Bros. Discovery’s Max and its hit TV series Tokyo Vice.
The neo-noir crime drama was then two-thirds of the way through production of its second season on location in Japan, and one of its most ambitious shoots was planned for that night. The production was set to take over a full block of Akasaka’s Esplanade, an old nightlife strip famous for the hundreds of bars and hostess clubs that are packed into its narrow mid-rise buildings. No Japanese TV production — let alone a foreign, Western one — had ever been granted police permission to shoot in Akasaka, which is near many of Tokyo’s most important cultural and political sites.

Five-time Emmy nominee Noah Wyle, no stranger to the world of medical dramas after 200+ episodes of ER, is confirmed to star and executive produce The Pitt. Max has given the medical drama a straight-to-series order, with season one expected to consist of 15 episodes.
Max’s announcement describes the series as a “realistic examination of the challenges facing healthcare workers in today’s America as seen through the lens of the frontline heroes working in a modern-day hospital in Pittsburgh.”
The series is an ER reunion of sorts, with Emmy nominee R. Scott Gemmill writing, executive producing, and guiding the series as showrunner. Additional executive producers include Emmy winner John Wells, Erin Jontow, Simran Baidwan, and Michael Hissrich.

The second season of the Max comedy series “Rap Sh!t” will be its last.
Created by Issa Rae, who also executive produced alongside showrunner Syreeta Singleton, “Rap Sh!t” charted the ascent of Shawna (Aida Osman) and Mia (KaMillion), estranged high school friends from Miami who reunite to form a rap duo and try to make it big in the music business. The dramedy also starred Jonica Booth (Chastity), Rj Cyler (Lamont) and Daniel Augustin (Maurice).
“I’m so proud of and grateful for Syreeta, our cast, writers and crew that made this show possible,” Rae tells Variety in a statement. “Thanks to Sarah Aubrey and Suzanna Makkos for championing the show, and much love to the fans that tuned in weekly to root for our girls.”

When Peacemaker premiered on Max almost two years ago, it took us into the crazy life of John Cena's Christopher Smith, aka Peacemaker. He'd already made an impact in Suicide Squad, and the series treatment was off-the-charts gonzo entertainment.
Infused with goofy, sometimes raunchy humor and the language to match, it is everything you'd expect from a James Gunn production.
As we wait patiently for Peacemaker Season 2, we're rounding up everything we know about what's coming.
Peacemaker Season 2 Renewal Status
Hallelujah! Max officially picked up Peacemaker Season 2 in February 2022. We couldn't have been happier.
Max was undoubtedly happy too because, at the time, the platform revealed the show had been a strong performer, to the surprise of very few.
Along with the renewal came the expected statement of excitement and thanks to the viewership and the network.

And just like that… another chaotic, traumatizing, and strangely addictive season of And Just Like That… has come to an end. Season Two introduced penis pumps and a palatial new apartment into Carrie Bradshaw’s world, plus the reappearance of her former flame Aidan Shaw and the blink-and-you’ll-miss-it return of Samantha Jones.

Max officially renewed And Just Like That… ahead of its much-anticipated season two finale which will feature the return of Kim Cattrall as Samantha. Season two episode 11 – part two of “The Last Supper” – finally delivers the cameo fans of the original foursome have eagerly anticipated.
Even though Samatha won’t be sharing scenes with her former Sex and the City co-stars, Cattrall will be seen in a cameo, styled by Patricia Field and shot in secret. In an interview on Today with Hoda and Jenna, Kim Cattrall confirmed that shopping in Bergdorf’s and picking out a great outfit for her cameo felt like dipping her toe back in time and having a wonderful afternoon.
However, fans shouldn’t expect Kim Cattrall back for the just-announced third season. It seems this short cameo is a one-off and not a precursor to an extended return as Samantha.

Carrie Bradshaw’s story is not yet complete. While And Just Like That…, the Max reboot of the iconic Sex and the City, has plenty of critics, the series has enough fans to warrant a third season. Max has announced the show will return for a third season just days before the season 2 finale is set to air, complete with a cameo from the much-missed Samantha Jones.

HBO Max, J.J. Abrams, and Latoya Morgan plan to introduce audiences to Duster, a period drama set in the Southwest starring Josh Holloway and Rachel Hilson. Duster is a concept Abrams and Morgan have been kicking around since April 2020, when it nearly got the green light from then HBO Max Chief Content Officer Kevin Reilly. The project remained in limbo since then, with HBO Max labeling it “in development.” The time has come for HBO Max to give Duster a series order after shooting a pilot episode.
Duster stars Rachel Hilson as Nina, the first Black FBI agent, who, in 1972, travels to the Southwest and gains a getaway driver, played by Josh Holloway. Together, the duo aims to take down a crime syndicate taking root in the area. Keith David, Sydney Elisabeth, Greg Grunberg, Camille Guaty, Asivak Koostachin, Adriana Aluna Martinez, and Benjamin Charles Watson also star.

“Duster,” an eight-episode drama from “Lost” creator J.J. Abrams and Latoya Morgan, has been ordered to series by HBO Max, it was announced Thursday. The order comes almost three years after “Duster” was first revealed to be in development at the streamer in April 2021.
Additionally, Max unveiled the cast for the 1972-set series, with Rachel Hilson starring as Nina, a young Black FBI agent who journeys to the Southwest on an assignment to take down a crime syndicate. Josh Holloway, best known for playing Sawyer in Abrams’ ABC series “Lost,” stars opposite Hilson as Jim, a getaway driver recruited to help Nina on her mission; his casting was first reported by Variety in 2021.
“We are delighted to bring this high-voltage crime caper from the brilliant minds of J.J. Abrams and Latoya Morgan to the HBO Max audience,” HBO Max head of original content Sarah Aubrey said in a statement.

J.J. Abrams and HBO Max are officially putting a series into gear.
The streamer has picked up Duster, a 1970s-set drama from Abrams and Latoya Morgan (Into the Badlands, The Walking Dead). Rachel Hilson (Love, Victor, This Is Us) and Josh Holloway, who worked with Abrams on Lost, head the cast.
Duster is the first series to spring from a nine-figure film and TV deal Abrams’ Bad Robot company signed with WarnerMedia (now Warner Bros. Discovery) in 2019. In April 2020, Duster was one of three Bad Robot projects announced for the yet-to-launch HBO Max, along with The Shining offshoot Overlook and a Justice League Dark project. The latter two have since been scrapped (Bad Robot has shopped Overlook to other possible buyers), as has Abrams’ long-developing sci-fi series Demimonde (which was for the HBO parent channel) after concerns over its projected 200 million-plus budget.

Last week, we learned that Brad Caleb Kane (Tokyo Vice) and Jason Fuchs (Wonder Woman), who was a co-producer on It: Chapter Two, have been hired to serve as the showrunners on the HBO Max streaming series called Welcome to Derry, which will serve as a prequel to the adaptations of Stephen King’s It that were directed by Andy Muschietti. Now Variety has asked HBO Max’s head of originals Sarah Aubrey for an update on the status of the show – and her answer included the words “demented”, “scares”, and “terrify”.
Here’s what Aubrey had to say: “We have been working with Jason Fuchs, Brad Caleb Kane, Andy Muschietti and (his producing partner / sister) Barbara Muschietti very closely…They’re so deep into this mythology and they have such a firm handle on the storytelling around these characters and also the demented scares that they’re putting into things.

One of the most unlikely impressive performances of the year belongs to a member of Batman’s rogue gallery. Usually, the instinct is to think this refers to the Joker; however, 2022’s The Batman showcased a newer take on the Penguin character, referred to only as “Oz” in the film. The amazing part is that audiences either found out or constantly questioned that it was none other than Colin Farrell in an unbelievably unrecognizable performance.
Farrell, while promoting The Banshees of Inisherin, spoke about how he was selfish to want to keep playing the character, and the actor has finally got his wish granted with the upcoming Penguin spin-off series set to appear on HBO Max. It was previously thought that the spin-off was to be a prequel outlining how the villain became a lackey for the bigger mob boss of Gotham City, Carmine Falcone. However, ComingSoon has the report...

On the way from HBO Max is a series titled “Welcome to Derry,” which will serve as a prequel to the two Stephen King movies from Andy Muschietti. Speaking with Variety, HBO Max head of originals Sarah Aubrey has teased a little bit of what we can expect from the upcoming series, while also noting that Muschietti is deeply involved with the show’s development.
“We have been working with Jason Fuchs, Brad Caleb Kane, Andy Muschietti and Barbara Muschietti very closely,” Aubrey tells the outlet. “They’re so deep into this mythology and they have such a firm handle on the storytelling around these characters and also the demented scares that they’re putting into things. Sometimes I’m, like, ‘What’s wrong with you?’ Just all the wild ways they think up to terrify us. You’ll be hearing more concretely about that development very soon.”
