The deal with Warner Bros. Discovery includes three series that will premiere as SkyShowtime originals, accelerating the Comcast and Paramount streaming joint venture's push into original fare, and bolsters the service's local content offering.
SkyShowtime, the European streaming joint venture of Comcast and Paramount Global, has struck a deal with Warner Bros. Discovery for exclusive rights across all of Europe to 21 HBO Max European originals.
The agreement covers 168 episodes, or more than 150 hours, of local original scripted programming, including three series previously not available anywhere that will get their world premiere as SkyShowtime originals in 2023. SkyShowtime said this will “significantly” accelerate its entry into original programming.
