Current HBO subscribers via AT&T and DirecTV, along with HBO Now subscribers, will have immediate access to HBO Max at no extra charge.
The HBO Max announcement comes just days before the launch of two other subscription services: Apple TV+ (on Friday, Nov. 1) and Disney+ (on Tuesday, Nov. 12).
In addition to original series, HBO Max will feature a robust selection of library content.
Also, an ad-supported version of HBO Max (price TBD) is also planned to launch in 2021.
