On Wednesday, Warner Bros. unveiled its special “100 Years of Storytelling” version of the classic logo, which now incorporates the studio’s iconic WB water tower. The release of the centennial logo came along with the announcement that the studio will roll out commemorative products, content and events in the months leading up to its 100th anniversary next spring.
 

Per Warner Bros., “Starting at the end of this year, and throughout 2023, Warner Bros.’ centennial celebration will include a fully realized, fan-focused campaign involving every division of the Studio — film, series, consumer products, video games, themed entertainment, studio tours, live events and more — as well as its Studios and Networks sister companies, including HBO Max, the TNets (TNT, TBS and truTV), WarnerMedia Kids, Young Adults & Classics (including WB Animation, Adult Swim, Cartoon Network and TCM) and others.”
 

Specific details regarding the centennial activities will be released in the coming months, but Variety is told plans include commemorative product launches, classic films released in theaters, special content releases — including a Warner Bros. retrospective — consumer live event experiences, and a special celebration on the Warner Bros. lot.

I hope Warners pays full attention  to it's classics from the GOlden Age: Lots of Jimmy Cagney and Errol Flynn will be in order.

Funny how Snyder fans are celebrating this when they looked at Jason as a hero when he first took over. They’re going to turn on David Zaslav next.

Wasn't he a reason why Snyder cut was released?

J.J. Abrams? He’s not steering anything.

From the article, it looks like they’re going to keep Casey Bloys and Toby Emmerich as of now.

Mergers are always about removing redundant layers. With Zaslav taking over, Kilar's reporting structure was redundant, so him, Sarnoff and Forsell had to go. There's no equivalent to Bloys and Emmerich on the Discovery side yet.

I notice whenever there is a merger, a purge of the upper ranks follows.

I don't want him to get near the DCU.

You need somebody like Feige who can deliver on a long term basis. Abrams seems to lose steam on his franchises pretty damn quick.

HBO Max programming Chief Casey Bloys and WB’s studio chiefs Toby Emmerich will report directly to Zaslav in the new structure.

Assuming it’s still Walter Hamanda since Toby is still in control of DC based films. 
 

“Toby Emmerich continues as Chairman, Warner Bros. Pictures Group, with responsibility for Warner Bros. Pictures, New Line Cinema, DC-based films and Warner Bros. Feature Animation.”
