Re: Netflix/Streaming Services
Thanks to a516digital on Twitter for the heads up about the newest Discovery+ Press Release here.
https://corporate.discovery.com/disc...anuary-4-2021/
The interesting piece of information for me is that Eurosport Player is basically going to disappear and Eurosport streaming content added to Discovery+.

New report suggesting Sky and Warner Bros are working on a deal to bring Wonder Woman 1984 to streaming in some form in January - the report states 'premium video on demand' but not clear whether it's via transactional VOD or an SVOD launch much like HBO Max.

Re: Netflix/Streaming Services
Also interesting to note the fairly low take-up of HBO Max. It's quite pricey at $14.99 though.
Quote:
Warner Bros to launch its 2021 movies simultaneously on HBO Max and in cinemas
The studio’s upcoming 17 releases, including The Matrix 4 and Dune, will premiere in the US for subscribers at no extra charge...
It’s been described as “a temporary plan” but will be a much-needed boost for HBO Max which launched earlier this year and has been struggling to attract subscribers ever since. Fewer than 9 million people have signed up while about 28 million existing HBO users haven’t activated their accounts, which come free with current plans.

It will be interesting to see what they do in the UK as lot of new Warner Media content is on Sky Atlantic. I can't imagine Warner would want their films exclusively on Sky channels as increased subscriptions resulting from showing the films mostly benefits Sky and less Warner Media.
I could see Warner making their films available PPV to the usual providers - Amazon, Sky Box Office, Virgin Media Store, etc.

As it stands, it's business as usual in global markets - so these films will release theatrically and go to Sky Cinema after 8 months or so as per the current output deal - remember this is a US strategy only.
Now if the WW84 speculation pans out and it gets an early window via PVOD or SVOD after a month, that could give us an idea of what a UK strategy could look like if there is one required but until then it seems like we get the likes of Godzilla Vs Kong in cinemas as normal.

WW64 has its UK theatrical release 16th Dec, the fact many cinemas will be closed does not seem to have altered it. Warner Bros confirmed the release yeterday on twitter.

The release date of December 16th hasn't changed - as mentioned in the Variety link above, reports are that WB and Sky are talking about a VOD release a month after that.

For what exactly? (If you can say...) WW84 getting an early streaming release? Or the whole 2021 movie slate? Or for HBO Max original programming?

Sounds like all content .
£19.99 is the estimated price.
You watch now just to mput egg on my face i've prob mis-read the document and it'll be SKY Cinema airing WW84 next year, lol that'll just be my luck lol but here is a snippet of document.
"Agreement reached betweet BSKYB and Warner Brothers on December 2ND 2020 for WB content to be on SKY Box Office. Proposed cost is £19.99gbp own prices can be set under term 36"
Term 36 is way above my level.

You're not missing much with SKY Atlantic at the moment honestly imo the only decent show on it in past year was Gangs of London that's only my opinion though others will ofcourse find much more content on it worth watching.

Definitely reads more like PVOD than something in the subscription space. I’m sure all will be revealed soon!
