Warner Bros. Discovery to split into two public companies by next year

Warner Bros. Discovery announced plans to split into two public companies by mid-2026: one focusing on streaming and studios, including HBO Max and movie properties, led by CEO David Zaslav; and a global networks company, including CNN and TNT Sports, led by CFO-turned-CEO Gunnar Wiedenfels.

The move reflects industry shifts as consumers move from cable to streaming, aiming to give each company more strategic focus.
