CNN Sets October 28 Launch for $6.99 ‘All Access’ Streaming Bundle

The move advances CEO Mark Thompson’s push to unify CNN’s linear and digital operations after the short‑lived CNN+.

Overview

  • The All Access tier combines a selection of live U.S. and international streams with on‑demand CNN Originals and Films, exclusive live events, and full CNN.com article access.
  • Pricing is $6.99 per month or $69.99 per year, with a first‑year promotional annual rate of $41.99 for sign‑ups through January 5, 2026.
  • Current cable and satellite customers can log in to the streaming video at no extra cost, but they must maintain a separate Basic subscription for unlimited CNN.com articles.
  • CNN will pull live programming and much of its library from Max in November as it consolidates streaming under the new product.
  • CNN has not committed to a full cable simulcast, describing All Access as offering a “selection” of live programming with the detailed schedule to be revealed at launch.
