Great series like Game of Thrones and Harry Potter will soon be available on Jio Cinema thanks to Reliance’s partnership with Warner Bros. and HBO.

Movies and television shows such as Game of Thrones, Harry Potter, Succession, and Discovery will be available on the Jio Cinema app soon. Mukesh Ambani’s Viacom18 has a deal with Hollywood’s well-known production house Warner Bros Discovery Inc. for this. Jio Cinema will now compete directly with Amazon Prime Video and Disney Hotstar.

According to Viacom18 and Warner Bros, films and shows on Jio Cinema will only be available in the United States. Previously, Disney had the rights to stream Warner Bros. and HBO content. This collaboration came to an end on March 31, 23. As a result, Indian viewers were unable to watch shows like HBO’s Game of Thrones. HBO’s parent company is Warner Bros.
