The collection also boasts approximately 100 new avatars, adding characters like Harry, Hermione, Ron, Dobby, Voldemort, Professor McGonagall, and Hagrid from Harry Potter; Joel, Ellie and a Clicker from The Last of Us; Tanya, Portia and Valentina from The White Lotus; Peacemaker, Emilia Harcourt and Adrian Chase from Peacemaker; among many more.

Avatars will be organized in a way that makes it easy for users to find their favorite character. Once a user selects an avatar, it will appear across all supported platforms where they are signed in, welcoming them to the Max streaming experience.

“We’re bringing together the best content across every genre in Max, and that means our viewers now have even more ways to celebrate their favorite fandoms and put their unique stamp on their profiles,” said Meredith Gertler, EVP, Global Streaming Content Strategy, Planning & Analysis . “This expanded list of character avatars allows users to quickly identify their profiles and express their identity through a creative lens, further connecting them with the stories and characters they love on the platform.”
