100 Years of Warner Bros. – A Documentary

Alongside the new collection of films, Emirates has included four Max Original documentary specials chronicling the history of the movie studio. Exploring the impact of Warner Bros. on art, commerce and culture, 100 Years of Warner Bros. traces the company’s underdog origins from its founding in the early 1920s, through decades of creative risks and impactful storytelling, to the mergers of the 2000s that transformed the company into a global entertainment powerhouse.

Narrated by Morgan Freeman and featuring clips from iconic films and hit TV series, this documentary offers a fascinating behind-the-scenes look into the memorable stories that have spoken to audiences worldwide for generations. The documentaries feature interviews with over 60 legendary filmmakers, actors and executives, including Martin Scorsese, Oprah Winfrey, Clint Eastwood, Tim Burton, George Clooney, Ellen DeGeneres, Daniel Radcliffe, Keanu Reeves, Oliver Stone and Robert De Niro.
