The international premium streaming service Starzplay will be launched in the Nordics on NENT/Viaplay this Thursday, December 17.
This follows debuts earlier this month on Vodafone in Italy, Sky in Switzerland and Molotov in France.
Starzplay is on track to end 2020 with almost 30 partner launches across much of its global footprint since June, with each having a unique and curated selection of premium drama and features alongside core Starz Originals as part of their offering.
In addition, the service launched as a D2C Starzplay app in six new markets including Argentina, Chile, Colombia, India (as Lionsgate Play) and Switzerland and on Amazon Fire TV in Brazil, France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the UK. This brings the total number of territories the service is available in to 55.
From this Thursday, subscribers to NENT Group’s Viaplay streaming service in all Nordic territories will have direct access to a wide selection of Starzplay series, with the full Starzplay service to be offered through Viaplay to all Viaplay subscribers at a later date.
According to Superna Kalle, executive VP, International Digital Networks, Starz: “Our growth as a service has gone from strength to strength this year, and we are grateful to both our new and established partners for helping us to bring Starzplay into the homes of people across the globe in a time where the power of great entertainment has never been more apparent”.
