2020s–present: Academy Awards triumph, further agreements, and expansion
In December 2023, Warner Bros Discovery (WBD) struck a deal with A24, securing exclusive "Pay-1" streaming rights for A24's releases, ensuring they debut on HBO, Max, and Cinemax before other platforms. This multiyear agreement also extends WBD's access to A24's acclaimed film catalog, promising over one hundred titles to subscribers. Notable films covered by the deal include Dicks: The Musical and Priscilla. Paramount's Showtime previously held the Pay-1 deal with A24 until its expiration in November 2022. The agreement represents a boon for A24 and audiences, with HBO, Max, and Discovery+ boasting a combined subscriber base of 95.1 million, and Paramount+ with 63 million subscribers. Additionally, WBD's enhancements to the Max streaming app and upcoming A24 releases such as Tuesday and Problemista further elevate the collaboration's appeal.
