As far as Warner Bros and its movies go, the studio is presumably waiting to see how Wonder Woman 1984 performs on HBO Max. The film will have a special feature in streaming: it will be available in 4K. The film will also premiere on HBO Max in the USA on December 25, 2020.
The services Netflix, Disney +, Amazon Prime Video and Apple TV + offer content in 4K. Suffice it to say, the service lagged behind its competitors. Those viewing technologies will be initially implemented on the highly anticipated Wonder Woman 1984 film.
"Excited to announce that #WW84 will be the first film on HBO Max available in 4K Ultra HD, HDR 10, Dolby Vision AND Dolby Atmos!".
Last month, AT&T announced that it would release the sequel to 2017's "Wonder Woman" on December 25 in USA theaters and on HBO Max, where it will be available for the first month of release at no additional charge to subscribers. But apparently that will all change with the premiere of Wonder Woman 1984 that will stream in 4k, HDR10/Dolby Vision, and immersive Dolby Atmos audio (that according to Director Patty Jenkins who revealed the news today via Twitter). I cannot wait any longer. Can't wait. IN THEATERS on December 25th and exclusively streaming in the United States on @hbomax.
Viewers will hope that Warner will retroactively add 4K versions of its big-budget HBO Max originals like Raised by Wolves and the Kaley Cuoco-starring The Flight Attendant. While debuting theatrically in global markets a week earlier starting on December 16. The film has been finished for months and has been delayed about a year due to circumstances. Pictures' follow up to the DC Super Hero's first outing, 2017's record-breaking "Wonder Woman", which took in $822 million at the worldwide box office.
