Starting next month, content from HBO, Max Original and Warner Bros will be available on the streaming platform JioCinema after Warner Bros Discovery and Viacom18 on Thursday announced a new multi-year agreement to bring titles from the premium American studio to Indian audiences.

Also featured as part of the agreement are highly anticipated HBO Original series including 'The Idol', 'White House Plumbers', 'The Sympathizer' and 'The Regime'. In addition, HBO's esteemed series and documentaries, including 'Game of Thrones', 'Sex & The City', 'Big Little Lies', 'Chernobyl' and 'Veep', will also be up for streaming.

Clement Schwebig, President, India, Southeast Asia, and Korea, Warner Bros. Discovery, said Warner Bros. Discovery's brands are incredibly popular across India, and the company is pleased to partner with Viacom18 to bring premium HBO, Max Original and Warner Bros. content to local fans.

"This new agreement demonstrates our commitment to South Asia as we seek to entertain audiences across more platforms, and further strengthens the scale of our regional business as a whole," Schwebig said in a statement.

Ferzad Palia, Head - SVOD & International Business, Viacom18, said after live sport, JioCinema is on a mission to "build the most magnetic destination for entertainment for all Indians".

"The strategic partnership with Warner Bros. Discovery is a big milestone in our journey to offer the best of Hollywood content to our elite consumers. We believe that Warner Bros. Discovery sets the global standards for premium content and this partnership allows us to create the best and the most comprehensive destination for our users", Palia added.
