A Big New Sports Streaming Service Is Coming This Year


Fox, Warner Bros. Discovery, and Disney are teaming up for a new Hulu-like bundle devoted to live sports.

Each member of the triad will own a third of the joint venture, and the forthcoming service — which will feature a raft of live games and events that one previously needed a cable log-in to watch — is expected to launch as a new app in fall 2024. “This means the full suite of ESPN channels will be available to consumers alongside the sports programming of other industry leaders as part of a differentiated sports-centric service,” Disney CEO Bob Iger said in a statement that also included Warner Bros. The app is expected to carry full livestreams of all the included cable and broadcast channels — which means people will also get access to those networks’ non-sports content as well.
