The platform will feature original films and series from NBCUniversal, Sky and ViacomCBS as SHOWTIME, Nickelodeon, Paramount Pictures, Paramount + Originals, Sky Studios, Universal Pictures and Peacock, so we find that there will be thousands of titles to choose from across all genres and audiences.
Arrival in 2022
This new streaming platform will arrive sometime in 2022, although it is still subject to regulatory approval Of each country. Among the countries in which it will be available we will find Albania, Andorra, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Denmark, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Finland, Hungary, Kosovo, North Macedonia, Montenegro, Norway, the Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, the Czech Republic, Romania, Serbia and Sweden.
As we can see, some countries such as Italy, the United Kingdom, Germany, Switzerland or Austria will not have this new platform, where Paramount + will also be integrated into Sky from 2022.
New releases every month
In total, the platform will have more than 10,000 hours of entertainment, offering first screenings, new films and TV season releases every month, in addition to classic content that will be added to the platform.
At the moment the price who will have the subscription to the platform. ViacomCBS and Comcast they affirm that they will give more details in the coming months, as well as the final date launch that will take place next year. We will also have to wait to know the quality of the streaming, but it would be strange if they did not bet on 4K.
The creation of this streaming platform follows a path similar to that of HBO Max, unifying production companies on the same platform. In this case, we have the union of two giants and they will have a multitude of original content under their belt instead of launching two streaming platforms separately.
Movistar now offers some of its content
Currently, the content that will end up on this platform is usually seen on other services or on television operators. For instance, Movistar has agreements to offer Universal content, plus everything new from Showtime it also premieres directly on Movistar channels.
Among the contents that we will see on this new platform are the reboots of The Prince of Bel-Air or that of Saved by the Bell. There should also be Homeland, Shameless, Masters of Sex, Billions, and a long etcetera. The platform will confirm what content will be in the launch later, since they currently have several agreements in force with platforms such as Movistar +.
This platform, as we can see, will also feature Sky, whose attempt to penetrate Spain was a failure by doing it alone and with content that did not appeal much to the user. In this case, we will have much more content, both old and new, that will make the platform a new competitor against big names like Netflix, HBO Max, Amazon or Disney +.
