Beginning April 1, 2026, Netflix Will Start Streaming WWE Across Germany, Switzerland, Austria And Africa

Netflix had begun sending notice to various consumers in Germany, Switzerland, Austria and Africa informing them about the inclusion on WWE and it goes as follows:

Beginning April 1, 2026, Netflix will be the new exclusive home of WWE in your region.

Netflix brings WWE's electrifying content all to one place, including weekly shows, RAW, SmackDown and NXT, PLUS Premium Live Events (PLEs) such as WrestleMania, Royal Rumble, and SummerSlam.

Many of WWE's top moments, along with historic PLEs and select programming, are available on Netflix, including WrestleMania 42, which emanate live from Las Vegas, Nevada on Saturday, April 18 and Sunday, April 19. Don't miss the "Best in the World" CM Punk as he goes head-to-head against "The OTC" Roman Reigns for the World Heavyweight Championship.

If you're a Netflix subscriber, you're all set. If you are not a Netflix subscriber, you will need to subscribe so you don't miss a moment. We can't wait for you to experience WWE on Netflix.

For sometime, BILD and ProSieben MAXX served as the right holders for these events in Germany, Switzerland and Austria with SuperSport in Africa. This announcement means that these events will no longer be accessible on those outlets. 

However, we're still awaiting further comment from SuperSport about WWE's early induction onto Netflix. As the current deal, MultiChoice has with WWE was only set to expire in 2027.

After Canal+ acquired MultiChoice in 2025, Canal Afrique consumers gained access to SuperSport's expanded sports offering. This included Raw, SmackDown, NXT and premium events like Royal Rumble on the 24 hour WWE channel.

It could be that SuperSport (for now) still holds linear rights to the WWE as they never enforced those onto Showmax. Another could be that under Canal+, they opted to scrap the carriage deal as part of their cost cutting endeavours.

Netflix Backs Out Of Warner Bros. Bidding, Paramount Set to Win

In a stunning twist, Netflix is declining to raise its bid for Warner Bros., positioning David Ellison’s Paramount as the winner in the battle for the fabled studio.

Netflix co-CEOs Ged Sarandos and Greg Peters released a statement Thursday outlining their decision, namely that the the deal is “no longer financially attractive” and that it “was always a ‘nice to have’ at the right price, not a ‘must have’ at any price.”

“The transaction we negotiated would have created shareholder value with a clear path to regulatory approval. However, we’ve always been disciplined, and at the price required to match Paramount Skydance’s latest offer, the deal is no longer financially attractive, so we are declining to match the Paramount Skydance bid,” the co-CEOs said.

“Warner Bros. is a world-class organization, and we want to thank David Zaslav, Gunnar Wiedenfels, Bruce Campbell, Brad Singer and the WBD Board for running a fair and rigorous process,” they added. “We believe we would have been strong stewards of Warner Bros.’ iconic brands, and that our deal would have strengthened the entertainment industry and preserved and created more production jobs in the U.S. But this transaction was always a ‘nice to have’ at the right price, not a ‘must have’ at any price.

With Netflix out, Paramount’s latest bid is almost a sure thing to be accepted by the Warners board, which determined earlier Thursday that it was a “superior proposal” to Netflix’s deal.

PSKY’s latest proposal was for $31 per share, but had a number of other sweeteners, including a ticking fee payable to shareholders equal to $0.25 per quarter beginning after Sept. 30, 2026, as well as a $7 billion regulatory termination in the event the transaction does not close due to regulatory matters.

Paramount has also agreed to pay the $2.8 billion termination fee that Warner Bros. would be required to pay to Netflix to terminate the existing merger agreement.

If all goes as expected, Netflix will be on the receiving end of that $2.8 billion sooner rather than later. Netflix shares soared by more than 10% in after-hours trading after the decision was announced.

Sarandos and Peters say they will continue to pour cash into content:

“Netflix’s business is healthy, strong and growing organically, powered by our slate and best-in-class streaming service. This year, we’ll invest approximately $20 billion in quality films and series and will expand our entertaining offering. Consistent with our capital allocation policy, we’ll also resume our share repurchase program,” they said. “We will continue to do what we’ve done for more than 20 years as a public company: delight our members, profitably grow our business, and drive long-term shareholder value.”

TLC South Africa Presents Inside the Kim Kardashian Heist: A Gripping Three‑Part Deep Dive Into One Of The Most Shocking Crimes Of The Decade

TLC South Africa brings viewers an unmissable new three‑part documentary series, Inside the Kim Kardashian Heist, offering unprecedented access and fresh insight into the 2016 robbery that shook pop culture, law enforcement, and global media. Premiering Sunday, 1 March at 21:00 on TLC South Africa (DStv Channel 135), the series unpacks the night Kim Kardashian was held at gunpoint in her Paris hotel room and robbed of jewellery valued at more than $6 million.

 

Set against the high‑glamour backdrop of Paris Fashion Week, the documentary revisits what French authorities described as “the biggest robbery in France for 50 years.” Through exclusive interviews with those closest to the crime, from the concierge who lived through the ordeal to a member of the ageing criminal crew later dubbed the “Grandpa Gang”, the series reveals new layers to a case that captivated the world.

 

Featuring never‑before‑heard testimonies, forensic detail from the police investigation, and the extraordinary twists that followed, Inside the Kim Kardashian Heist explores how a group of unlikely suspects executed a meticulously planned crime that exposed vulnerabilities at the heart of celebrity culture, security, and international media frenzy.

 

Episode Guide

Episode 1: “The Heist” – Premieres 1 March at 21:00

Amid the glitz of Paris Fashion Week 2016, Kim Kardashian, one of the world’s most recognisable figures, is robbed at gunpoint in her private hotel residence. For Kim and the concierge, Mr Abderrahmane Ouatiki, the night becomes a traumatic turning point. As France reels from the embarrassment of its biggest jewel theft in half a century, early speculation points to the infamous Pink Panthers. But the elite Anti‑Bandit Brigade suspects something far more complex.

 

Episode 2: “The Inside Man” – Premieres 8 March at 21:00

As Kim withdraws from public view, conspiracy theories explode online. Under mounting pressure, French investigators race to restore the country’s reputation. DNA traces, CCTV footage, and phone taps point to an unexpected group of suspects, and a sprawling investigation culminates in dramatic dawn raids that lead to 17 arrests. The question of who orchestrated the heist from the inside becomes the central mystery.

 

Episode 3: “The Trial” – Premieres 15 March at 21:00

More than eight years later, the case reaches the courts in what many call ‘the trial of the century.’ Defence attorney Arthur Vercken fights to clear his client, Gary Madar, while the concierge seeks formal recognition of his trauma. As the “Grandpa Gang” faces justice,  including a member who wrote a book about the robbery, the Palais de Justice becomes a global media spectacle. The final question remains: will justice be served?

 

Don’t miss this gripping three‑part docuseries, airing Sundays from 1 to 15 March at 21:00 on TLC South Africa (DStv 135).

A New Dawn For African Superheroes: The Impact Of Batwing Unmasked On TNT Across Africa

In an era where African superheroes are celebrated on a global stage, one of the first remains largely in the shadows. Now, a groundbreaking documentary, BATWING Unmasked: An African Super Hero, premiering on TNT Africa (DStv 137) on Friday, 6 March at 19:30 CAT, seeks to change that by asking a powerful question: “Why is Batwing scarcely known, even in Africa, and what can African creators teach us about expanding his legacy?”

 

Produced by Joachim Landau and directed by Thomas Letellier, the 52-minute film revisits the ambitious story of Batwing. The character, originally David Zavimbe, a former child soldier in the Democratic Republic of Congo who later became an elite police officer, was the first African superhero to operate on African soil within DC’s official continuity. The documentary explores the initial creative ambition and the tensions that came with it: how to portray a country marked by real conflict without sensationalism, and how to avoid clichés while meeting the expectations of a predominantly Western readership.

 

The film features insights from Batwing’s American co-creator, Judd Winick, alongside a powerful roster of African and diaspora voices who analyse the hero’s cultural significance. “Batwing stands at the crossroads of representation and imagination,” says producer Joachim Landau. “His story forces us to confront who gets to be visible in global pop culture and why. With this documentary, we wanted to give Batwing back to the continent.”

 

A central point of the documentary is the critical shift in the character's history. After its launch, the series struggled commercially, leading DC to ‘reboot’ Batwing with a new identity: Luke Fox, an African-American character based in the United States. BATWING Unmasked investigates this pivotal moment, asking whether it was a purely commercial decision, an admission of the challenges of sustaining an African hero, or a sign of the structural limits of diversity in major publishing.

The film platforms the African creatives who can speak to this complexity. For South African actor Siv Ngesi, Batwing’s story is profoundly personal. “Batwing is a hero who carries darkness, trauma, and hope all at once, and that’s what makes him so profoundly African,” Ngesi shares. “Representation isn’t just about visibility; it’s about healing.”

South African artist Loyiso Mkize, who offers his perspective in the film, believes Batwing was a breakthrough. “He showed that African heroes can be complex, grounded and powerful without being filtered through a Western gaze,” he explains. “His story challenges the industry to embrace African imagination as a force that can stand on its own.” The documentary also features Nigerian-American actor Chukwudi Iwuji (Peacemaker), who discusses the identity and reception issues faced by African talent in the U.S. entertainment industry.

 

As African creativity continues to influence global culture, BATWING Unmasked arrives at a crucial time. It positions the hero not just as a character, but as a cultural turning point. A reminder that African stories deserve to be told by African voices.

 

This March, TNT Africa kicks off the TNT DC Legends Stunt with the exclusive premiere of BATWING Unmasked: An African Super Hero. This special programming block will run every Friday night, allowing viewers to dive into nine iconic Batman films that bridge the gap from the classic hero of Gotham to the modern hero of Tinasha.

Lost Women Of Alaska: SA‑Born Killer’s Case Becomes The Focus Of A Powerful New Documentary Premiering On ID Africa In March

Leading true crime network Investigation Discovery brings the Emmy‑nominated LOST WOMEN franchise back with a gripping new instalment. LOST WOMEN OF ALASKA unpacks the chilling crimes of a South African‑born killer whose actions shook a remote community and exposed deep cracks in the systems meant to protect vulnerable women. This three‑part event invites African viewers into a gripping investigation that uncovers how two Indigenous women were targeted, overlooked, and ultimately connected through a trail of evidence that stunned authorities.

 

Over three gripping hours, LOST WOMEN OF ALASKA premieres on Sunday, 8 March at 21:00 on ID Africa (DStv channel 171).

 

“Expanding the LOST WOMEN franchise allows us to shine a light on cases involving underrepresented women, and LOST WOMEN OF ALASKA confronts the devastating intersection of race and systemic failures that perpetuate violence against Indigenous women. I’m honoured to continue this partnership with ID to amplify these crucial stories and create bold, meaningful work,” said Executive Producer Octavia Spencer.

 

As the LOST WOMEN franchise continues to provoke important conversations around society’s treatment of women, LOST WOMEN OF ALASKA offers an unsettling look into the murders of Veronica Abouchuk and Kathleen Jo Henry, killed in 2018 and 2019. They join a cacophony of Indigenous voices seemingly lost without a trace in the remote Alaskan landscape, but through the courage of some unlikely heroes, the twisted crimes of a potential serial killer come to light. Over three episodes packed with surprising turns, LOST WOMEN OF ALASKA delivers intimate and unflinching access to the disturbing impact of a predator who turns a community into a personal hunting ground. But his arrest is only the beginning of a far deeper horror.

 

“Octavia brings a level of care to every story she touches,” said Jason Sarlanis, President of ID. “LOST WOMEN OF ALASKA helps expose a crisis impacting Indigenous women with sensitivity and cinematic power. We’re proud to continue building prestige true‑crime storytelling together.”

 

As South Africa continues its fight against gender‑based violence, LOST WOMEN OF ALASKA arrives as a timely and haunting reminder of the cost of silence. With its unexpected South African connection and its commitment to restoring dignity to the victims, the series is set to spark important conversations across the continent.

Canal+ Afrique Adds Four New Channels To DStv English Plus Packages, Converts E! To Bravo

Following the acquisition of MultiChoice in late 2025 by Canal+, the French broadcaster has subjected the company to various cost cutting initiatives. This included the non-renewal of the Winter Olympics by SuperSport as decisions are now made in France.

As more cuts are underway, Canal+ Afrique will be giving viewers access to 4 additional DStv channels. This would comprise of Studio Universal and National Geographic alongside SuperSport Action and WWE with E! becoming Bravo.

SuperSport Action offers UFC, NBA and international football with 24 hour wrestling coverage available on WWE.

SuperSport Action and WWE addition on Canal+ Afrique increases the number of SuperSport channels on the platform from 4 to 6 channels. This comes after MultiChoice widened the reach of WWE to DStv Access customers in South Africa.

Bravo, the iconic international NBCUniversal channel dedicated to reality TV and the genre's iconic franchises launched in Africa by October 2025. It is scheduled to replace the French version seen on Canal+ Afrique by March 17.

The rebranded channel will air even more flagship shows, including: The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Below Deck and its spin-offs (Mediterranean, Sailing Yacht, Australia), Southern Hospitality, Bravo’s Love Hotel, Next Gen.

Studio Universal is a specialty television channel owned by Universal Networks International (a division of NBCUniversal), focused primarily on movies and film-related programming.

It specializes in airing films—mostly from the Universal Pictures library—along with related content like interviews, behind-the-scenes insights, short films, and themed programming blocks (e.g., nights or seasons dedicated to a specific genre, director, or actor).

National Geographic offers documentaries and specials on topics like nature, wildlife, science, space, history and adventure. Famous for high-production-value content (e.g., series with David Attenborough, and Air Crash Investigation.

It forms part of a joint venture between the National Geographic Society and The Walt Disney Company.

Following the removal of BET Africa and last minute renewal deal between Warner Bros. Discovery and Canal+ that led to MultiChoice keeping their channels. The deal appears to have excluded Canal+ Afrique from packaging Discovery Channel.

This has led to the inclusion of National Geographic with Studio Universal serving as an addition on the platform.

Canal+ Reportedly Delaying Production Of Local Content On KykNET And Mzansi Magic

As some people may recall, Canal+ took control of MultiChoice by late 2025 and are planning to save up at R7.5 billion in costs by 2030. This prompted them not to acquire the Winter Olympics on SuperSport and abandon HBO on M-Net.

Despite what anyone thinks about Canal+, let's face it MultiChoice has been losing subscribers and the French are just doing the heavy lifting. Several insiders had stated that consumers should expect more cuts during the course of the year.

But then most consumers are kind of curious as to whether they'll be a price increase and if not why they should continue to pay more for even less now.

We're already halfway into February and now there's reports that production on local content has been paused/delayed. This is because Canal+ is slashing costs at MultiChoice with efforts being redirected from Johannesburg to Paris.

According to reports, numerous contracts for local series and soap operas are unsigned by Canal+. This would explain why there has yet to be word whether iThonga is getting renewed as the first season concludes this month on Mzansi Magic.

There's fears that Canal+ will prioritize on foreign series as seen with the recently added show on KykNET, The Landman. This part shouldn't come as a shocker because the owners are based in France and majority of content is dubbed there.

MultiChoice has been leaning toward this path post the takeover as seen with Zee Zonke and Star Khanya. Even international brands like Cartoon Network and Cartoonito are also starting to dub animated shows to Zulu.

This delay has also led some to believe that Canal+ will further reduce primetime in favour of archived material such as Isibaya on Mzansi Magic.

For over 150 years, the British and Commonwealth Governments have actively been investigating incidents of Paranormal and Unexplained Phenomena. The very existence of these investigations has long been denied - and they have been held under lock and key for fear of the panic that would be created if the public knew. Now, for the first time the full extent of these investigations can be revealed. Repeat: Saturday 21:55

Director Werner Herzog accompanies Boyes, Kerllen Costa and expert San trackers on an arduous expedition through rugged terrain, exploring not only the scientific hunt for physical evidence like DNA but also the deeper mythic and philosophical pull of the search itself.

KykNet Is Widening The Reach Of M-Net's International Dramas Following The Closure Of Me And 1Magic In 2024

A few years ago, MultiChoice and M-Net made the decision to yank away both Me and 1Magic from the DStv platform. These endeavours were consolidated under M-Net and Showmax, the company's struggling streaming service.

Since then, viewers of these brands had to resort to Universal TV, Comedy Central and Bravo to get access to The Real Housewives alongside older seasons of Chicago P.D. and The Equaliser. 

The problem part to this rearrangement dealt with the fact that M-Net curated local content like My Kitchen Rules SA and Summertide. With the closure of Me, this offering wasn't being allocated on Mzansi Magic as seen with Showmax's Youngins.

It had even been speculated that Compact+ and Compact's decline in subscribers stemmed from the closures of these brands. While it doesn't seem like MultiChoice or Canal+ could launch something along the lines of Me in a near term.

It seems like under Canal+, they have begun reintroducing these shows or at least to KykNET starting with American drama, Landman.

After KykNET & Kie decided to ramp up international telenovelas similar to what eMedia Investments had been doing for their linear platforms. The brand appears to be broadening this lineup with Landman.

It's likely that more dramas will receive the same treatment as Landman or in this case Summertide, Recipe For Love And Murder and King & Conqueror.

Based in France, Canal+ had been dubbing shows distributed by Warner Bros. Discovery, Disney and Paramount in that market. There's no reason to doubt that a similar outcome is awaiting DStv consumers in Southern Africa.

Global Phenomenon Landman Dubbed In Afrikaans On KykNET

kykNET has struck a major blow for Afrikaans viewers by purchasing the dubbing rights to this hit series, which captivates audiences everywhere with nail-biting intrigue in the turbulent world of the Texas oil industry. 

“We are very excited to see how viewers will react to this series—including those for whom Landman is completely new, as well as those who may have already watched the series in English on M-Net and now want to experience it in their mother tongue. Landman is one of the major TV highlights of recent years, and we believe the story world created by Taylor Sheridan will be gripping for many kykNET viewers—and entertaining!” says Waldimar Pelser, M-Net Director of Premium Channels. “Be warned, however: it gets quite hot there in Texas!”

The series was created by Taylor Sheridan, who was also responsible for hit series such as Yellowstone, 1883, and 1923. Landman is set in West Texas and tells the complex story of a group of people—from billionaires to oil field workers—whose lives revolve around oil. 

Billy Bob Thornton stars as the landman Tommy Norris. In Afrikaans, a landman is someone involved in working farmland. In this case, it refers to the crucial link between oil companies and landowners; the one who must negotiate rights for extraction and development while considering legal regulations that a team of highly-paid lawyers naturally tries to bend in favour of their employers. 

Landman, however, does not only revolve around landowners and rich oil bosses. West Texas borders Mexico, meaning the area is also used by drug cartels as a distribution route. 

Who's who

• Tommy Norris (Billy Bob Thornton, voiced by De Waal Stemmet): A hardened landman working for M-Tex Oil who handles all their negotiations. Keeping everyone, from oil bosses to drug dealers, happy is no easy task.

• Angela (Ali Larter, voiced by Natasja Jacobs): Tommy's ex-wife and the mother of his two children, Cooper and Ainsley.

• Cooper (Jacob Lofland, voiced by Rowlen von Gericke): Studied geology but dropped out and now works for M-Tex as a roughneck on the oil fields.

• Ainsley (Michelle Randolph, voiced by Anré Buguegnon): A high school student.

• Rebecca Falcone (Kayla Wallace, voiced by Sue Pyler): A lawyer who does work for M-Tex Oil.

• Dale Bradley (James Jordan, voiced by Antowan Nöthling): A petroleum engineer and a good friend of Tommy.

• Monty Miller (Jon Hamm, voiced by Charl van Heyningen): The owner of M-Tex Oil who has a long-standing professional and personal relationship with Tommy.

• Cami Miller (Demi Moore, voiced by Renske Jacobs): Monty's wife.

• Nathan (Colm Feore, voiced by Jakkie Groenewald): An attorney and administrator at M-Tex Oil.

• Ariana Medina (Paulina Chavez, voiced by Claudia Jones): A young widow whose husband died in an accident on one of M-Tex Oil's fields. 

A formidable team of translators, including Morné Coetzer, Janine Opperman, and Francois le Roux, excelled at the challenging task of capturing the atmosphere of this brilliant series in Afrikaans. The dubbing directors are Rina Nienaber and De Waal Stemmet.

kykNET's Afrikaans version is one of the few dubbed versions of the series available worldwide. 

Canal+ Expects Billions In Savings After MultiChoice Deal

Canal+ expects to generate more than €400-million (R7.5-billion) in annual earnings “synergies” from its acquisition of MultiChoice Group, underlining the strategic importance of Africa to the French media group’s long-term growth ambitions.

In a statement released on Thursday, Canal+ said the combined group is targeting run-rate cost synergies of more than €400-million at earnings before interest, tax and amortisation (Ebita) level, and more than €300-million in free cash flow, from 2030 onwards.

The group said the acquisition, which gave Canal+ effective control of MultiChoice in September 2025, had created a “unique global entertainment platform” anchored in Europe and Africa, with increased scale allowing it to optimise costs across content, technology and other group functions.

Canal+ CEO Maxime Saada said the deal positioned the group to capitalise on Africa’s long-term growth potential, while also delivering substantial efficiencies. “Our increased scale will enable us to generate substantial synergies, particularly across our cost base,” he said.

Africa is central to Canal+’s growth plans. The company said a combined management team is now responsible for all African markets under the leadership of Canal+ Africa CEO David Mignot, bringing together executives from both businesses.

The group cited favourable long-term trends on the continent, including rapid population growth, improving economic prospects and rising electrification and pay-TV penetration. Canal+ said its African subscriber base grew from 400 000 to nine million between 2010 and 2025, while MultiChoice’s customer base expanded from 3.9 million to 14.1 million over the same period.

Cost base
Together, the combined group has more than 40 million subscribers and operates in more than 70 countries. Canal+ said it is targeting between 50 million and 100 million subscribers over the longer term.

The company added that work is already under way to return MultiChoice’s African operations to growth following subscriber pressure in recent years. Further details on its plans for MultiChoice markets will be shared alongside Canal+’s full-year results in March.

Canal+ estimates the combined group’s 2025 cost base at around €8-billion, split between content costs of about €4.6-billion and technology and other costs of roughly €3.4-billion.

Cost synergies are expected to ramp up steadily, with more than €150-million in Ebita and free cash flow benefits targeted in 2026, rising to more than €300-million by 2028 and reaching full run-rate levels from 2030.

The group said more than €80-million of free cash flow synergies for 2026 have already been secured, including through new content partnerships, renegotiated hardware prices, optimisation of broadcasting and technology infrastructure, and the refinancing of MultiChoice’s long-term debt.

Implementation costs linked to the integration are expected to total about €35-million in 2026, rising to €40-million in 2028 and then declining to €20-million in 2030.

To support delivery of the synergies, Canal+ has centralised key group functions, including sports and entertainment content acquisition, technology, and procurement. It has also established dedicated governance structures to track and manage integration and cost savings.

Canal+ will provide further detail on the combined group’s strategy when it publishes its results for the year ended 31 December 2025 on 11 March 2026.
