HBO Max is officially launching on May 27, 2020 and will be available free to AT&T customers with certain wireless, video and internet plans. The service will also be free to customers who subscribe to HBO premium channels. For those who don’t qualify and non-AT&T customers, HBO Max costs $15.99 per month. The service’s library includes over 10,000 hours of movies and TV shows from Warner Bros., New Line Cinema, DC, TBS, TNT, Cartoon Network, Crunchyroll, Rooster Teeth, Looney Tunes, and others, as well as Max Originals.
