HBO Max Will Be Free For All The Current HBO Customers - Hulu

WarnerMedia has it all. From flagship HBO Max to inking a pact with Disney-controlled Hulu. it has now been confirmed that HBO Max will be available to subscribers when the platform launches later this month.

Under the terms of the agreement, existing HBO subscribers on Hulu will be automatically upgraded to HBO Max as of the May 27 launch date for no additional cost. Eligible new and existing Hulu subscribers will be able to purchase HBO Max directly through Hulu for $14.99 per month, through any Hulu package (including the entry-level tier with ads, the ad-free version, and Hulu + Live TV).

The deal with Hulu is the latest announced by WarnerMedia for HBO Max, following similar pacts with Apple, Charter Communications, Google and YouTube TV. HBO Max subscriptions also will be available directly, as well as from AT&T (WarnerMedia’s parent), which is bundling HBO Max free for high-end service tiers.

Companies not yet on board for HBO Max’s launch at this point include Comcast, Dish Network/Sling TV, Roku and Verizon.Hulu, which Disney acquired full control over in a deal with Comcast last year, had 30.4 million total subscribers as the end of 2019. Of those, 3.2 million subscribed to the Hulu + Live TV package.
