Warner Bros. Discovery made headlines by livestreaming the Broadway play Good Night, and Good Luck, marking the first live telecast of a Broadway performance in the U.S. on CNN and HBO Max. However, just days later, CEO David Zaslav announced the company would split into two separate entities by summer 2026. This decision effectively nullifies the previous merger with Discovery Inc., creating 'Streaming & Studios' and 'Global Networks', which will reallocate assets and alter the landscape of the company's operations.
This unprecedented livestream of Good Night, and Good Luck marked a significant step not only for Broadway but also for the media landscape.
Zaslav's announcement about the split reverses a major strategic merger that aimed to unify WarnerMedia with Discovery, indicating significant shifts in corporate strategy.
