The expansion kicks off this month by highlighting the legendary Mickey Rooney, with films like National Velvet and Words and Music joining the lineup. Humphrey Bogart’s 125th birthday is also being celebrated, with his films Key Largo, Invisible Stripes, and It All Came True also joining the service.
“At Max, we pride ourselves on our strong dedication to a robust library of fan favorite and classic films,” said Royce Battleman, Executive Vice President, Content Acquisitions, Warner Bros. Discovery. “Our latest expansion of TCM titles brings in even more timeless stories and invites viewers to relish in iconic cinematic moments on the platform.”
In January, Max will celebrate the birthday of the legendary Cary Grant, with films My Favorite Wife and Destination Tokyo, while also adding George Raft films Each Dawn I Die and Red Light to the service. In February, the platform will release a “31 Days of Oscars” collection that highlights various Oscar-winning films, including The Harvey Girls, Jezebel, Mildred Pierce, Neptune’s Daughter, The Last Time I Saw Paris, and more.
