"HBO has been on a shopping spree for its HBO Max service. It bought the rights to “Friends” and “The Big Bang Theory,” and now it’s using its outsized checkbook to bring beloved Japanese animation group Studio Ghibli’s films onto the web exclusively on its platform for U.S. subscribers.
All 21 films from the studio — including classics like “Princess Mononoke,” “Spirited Away,” “My Neighbor Totoro” and “Howl’s Moving Castle” — will be coming in 2020. “The Wind Rises” will be coming to the service in fall of 2020; the rest will come earlier in the spring."
