Netflix Eyes Classic Movies Channel
9 Dec
Summary
- Netflix may acquire Turner Classic Movies as part of a larger Warner Bros. deal.
- TCM's future ownership is tied to Warner Bros. film and TV studios.
- The acquisition is expected following a company split in 2026.

Netflix is poised to include Turner Classic Movies (TCM) within its acquisition portfolio, following a major deal with Warner Bros. Discovery. This development means the iconic film channel could soon operate under the Netflix umbrella.
The future of TCM has been a subject of speculation since the initial announcement of Warner Bros. Discovery's asset separation. While other networks like HBO will remain with Warner Bros., TCM is slated to be part of the studios and streaming division that Netflix is acquiring.
This transition is expected to be finalized after the company's planned separation, which is anticipated in 2026. Warner Bros. Pictures executives are set to continue their oversight of TCM's programming and strategy, even as the channel transitions to Netflix's ownership.
