Max streaming service to launch in Asian markets including Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia

Warner Bros Discovery will launch its Max streaming service across seven Asian markets, making the platform available in more than 72 markets, the media giant said on October 15.

Warner Bros said it would bring popular content from iconic brands such as HBO, Discovery, the DC Universe, Harry Potter, and Cartoon Network to Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Taiwan and Hong Kong from November 19.

The announcement comes after the company said last month it expects to add more than 6 million subscribers to its Max streaming platform in the third quarter.

Warner Bros’ streaming service Max includes premium content from HBO, along with programmes from HGTV, the Food Network, the Discovery Channel and other cable networks.
