Warner Bros. Discovery-owned streamer HBO Max has revealed its full pricing and programming line-up, ahead of its launch in the UK & Ireland on Thursday 26 March.
The platform, which has been rolling out internationally since its US debut in 2020, brings together content from HBO, Warner Bros. Pictures, Warner Bros. Television, DC Studios, and Max Originals.
It will start at £4.99 a month for a Basic with Ads package, rising to £14.99 for a premium subscription.
Warner Bros Discovery is also offering saver plans for customers looking to stream TNT Sports, which moves to HBO Max in the UK on 26 March 2026.
A Standard with Ads and TNT Sports package for a year’s contract will cost £27.99 per month, saving £8.99 per month. Meanwhile, a Premium and TNT Sports package will cost a monthly fee of £34.99 for a year’s contract – saving users £10.99 per month.
Fans who only wish to purchase TNT Sports can subscribe via HBO Max for a minimum 12-month term for £25.99, saving £5 per month, when compared to the monthly plan.
At launch, the complete first season of 2025 Emmy Award Winning Max Original The Pitt will be available to stream for the first time in the UK and Ireland, with episodes of the latest second season rolling out weekly.
HBO Max will also be the home of the highly anticipated Harry Potter TV series, as well as the new HBO Original series, Lanterns, which is based on the DC title “Green Lantern” and is set to premiere in the summer of 2026.
Beyond this, subscribers will have access to a range of upcoming HBO Original Series, including DTF St. Louis, Rooster, and the third and final season of The Comeback. HBO Max will be the only place subscribers in the UK and Ireland can catch up on all seasons of Euphoria, before the arrival of its third season in April 2026.
