Warner Bros. Discovery will cease to exist as a single entity around mid-2026, splitting into two companies named Warner Bros. and Discovery Global. Warner Bros. will handle properties like Warner Bros. Television, Warner Bros. Motion Picture Group, DC Studios, HBO, HBO Max, and Warner Bros. Gaming Studios. Discovery Global will manage CNN, TNT’s US sports offerings, Discovery, Discovery Plus, and Bleacher Report. David Zaslav remains CEO of Warner Bros., while Gunnar Wiedenfels becomes CEO of Discovery Global. The split aims to honor the legacy of both businesses while addressing massive debt issues, with Discovery Global’s debt separating from Warner Bros. to potentially improve stock performance. The restructuring signals strategic refocusing and financial management for both companies.
