WB Games Revenue Drops 41% Due To Suicide Squad: Considering Licensing Out Games

Batman. Justice League. Harry Potter. Looney Tunes. Game of Thrones. The list of intellectual property owned by Warner Bros. Discovery is massive, and an awful lot of it seems ripe for being turned into a video game. If you're thinking WB's been a little slow to leverage that library, it sounds like the company's leadership agrees, and is looking not just to make more of its own games, but to license out some of its biggest franchises to other game studios in the future.

WB Discovery Wants to License Franchises, Which Include Batman to Harry Potter and More, to Other Studios

Warner Bros Discovery has finally decided to bite the bullet and license out its massive list of IPs to other video game developers.

This year marks the 40th anniversary of the landmark horror A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984). The film, which introduced the iconic villain Freddy Krueger (Robert Englund), transformed the face of the genre, blending the then-typical slasher (only a relatively new breed at the time with the likes of Halloween and Friday the 13th) with disturbing supernatural elements only a creative genius like director Wes Craven could dream up.

The Western genre is as old as cinema itself, as early gunslinger films became popular at the very beginning of the 20th century within the silent era. Although the Western took off in earnest in 1939 thanks to the success of John Ford’s masterpiece Stagecoach, it hit its peak in the subsequent decades due to the star appeal of actors like Gary Cooper, Clint Eastwood, Lee Van Cleef, and Burt Lancaster, among others. There was a brief time when the Western genre could be consistently relied upon to be successful at the box office.

House of the Dragon Season 2 ended not with a bang but a whimper. After drawing out numerous storylines for seven episodes and offering only a few truly game-changing moments along the way, HBO's Game of Thrones prequel wrapped up its sophomore season with a finale that felt more like a trailer for Season 3 rather than a fitting conclusion to Season 2. Fans are a bit frustrated, especially considering the assumption that Season 2 would be the explosive payoff to a slow-burn Season 1.

Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.
