President and CEO of Discovery and the soon-to-be future CEO of Warner Bros. Discovery David Zaslav said the company will aim to be one of the most exciting places in the world for storytellers.
Late last month, Discovery and WarnerMedia announced that the companies were merging together, and now that things are official, a new name has been unveiled for the company: Warner Bros. Discovery.
The merger between companies is expected to be complete at some point in mid-2022, with regulatory hurdles still yet to be finished.
In an announcement earlier Tuesday, the company said that the new name will aim to honor, celebrate, and elevate the world’s most-storied creative studio in the world with the high-quality, global storytelling heritage of Discovery.
