'Westworld' is leaving HBO Max entirely after getting canceled

• "Westworld" is being pulled from HBO Max.
• It's the latest cost-saving effort by Warner Bros. Discovery.

If you haven't caught up on HBO's "Westworld," you might want to make it a priority.

Warner Bros. Discovery is planning to pull the sci-fi series from its streaming service HBO Max.

The news follow the show's surprise cancellation after four seasons last month. Joss Whedon's "The Nevers," which aired for half a season, will also be pulled.

Warner Bros. Discovery has been making cost-cutting moves since the company formed earlier this year with the WarnerMedia and Discovery merger.

The company has cancelled the release of the "Batgirl" movie, which was being made for HBO Max, and removed other HBO titles, as well as Warner Bros. movies, from HBO Max.

Pulling titles from the service saves Warner Bros. Discovery money on residuals paid to cast and crew.

"Westworld" and "The Nevers" could move to a free, ad-supported service, a space Warner Bros. Discovery has been exploring, according to Deadline.

The company is planning to combine HBO Max and Discovery+ into one streaming platform in 2023.
