Bad Robot Productions, owned by JJ Abrams, have joined hands with HBO Max to develop three series for the platform. A Justice League Dark based series is among them. Also, Bad Robot and HBO Max will also collaborate on a series inspired by author Stephen King’s The Shining titled Overlook.
JJ Abram’s collaboration with HBO Max
All three shows are HBO Max’s first offerings on its platform. It is a result of the new partnership between Abram’s Bad Robot Productions and Warner Media, which was first revealed in September 2019. Kevin Reilly, the chief content officer of HBO Max, voiced his delight at JJ Abram for creating an original drama for the streaming service and working on series adapted from Stephen King’s novel and the DC Universe as well.
