The agency will collaborate with entertainment company Once Upon a Time to prepare for the streamer’s launch in 22 markets on May 21st. Max combines all of the action from Eurosport’s subscription service, HBO Max’s programming, and Discovery’s real-life entertainment to create a comprehensive viewing experience for the entire family in one location. Max does not have a country-specific release schedule; it has been available for streaming in the US for a year. Initially, it will be available in the Nordics, Iberia, and Central and Eastern Europe. Poland, the Netherlands, France, and Belgium will follow. At this time, the UK is not scheduled.

Numerous Warner Bros. movies, including Barbie and Wonka, and classics like Paddington and the Harry Potter books, will be available for streaming on Max. In addition, there will be Grand Slam tennis competitions, cycling, HBO Originals like The White Lotus and The Last of Us, and news networks like CNN and Euronews. There will be three distinct plans to choose from: basic with advertisements, standard, and premium, with an additional sports add-on option. BigSmall, which most recently won the global money transfer fintech Wise competition, has previously collaborated with clients in the entertainment industry such as 2K Games, Amazon Music, and BBC America.
