Paramount+ Drama Slate: Series Moving To HBO, Sarah Aubrey & Francesca Orsi Sharing Oversight Among Options Explored Post-Merger – The Dish
Paramount and Warner Bros Discovery are reviewing how to organise their drama programmes following their merger under Skydance. One possibility under discussion is moving some forthcoming Paramount+ dramas to HBO, but the talks are at an early stage and no decisions have been made.
The series mentioned as possible candidates include *Discretion*, starring Nicole Kidman and Elle Fanning, and *The Best of Us*, featuring Jeremy Strong, as well as projects awaiting approval. Paramount+ programmes remain assigned to the service for now. Sarah Aubrey, who oversees Paramount+ and Max programming, and Francesca Orsi, HBO’s drama chief, are reviewing the slate; Orsi may also oversee prestige dramas that stay on Paramount+. Skydance has said the services could eventually combine into one platform.
In short
- Paramount+ and HBO are reviewing their drama slates.
- Moving some series to HBO is under discussion.
- No programme moves have been decided.
