Lionsgate-owned Starzplay has announced a partnership with Brazilian streaming leader Globoplay.
The partnership will see Globoplay offer access to Starzplay directly through its platform with a subscription that combines both services for BRL35.80 (US$6.97) per month. Existing Globoplay subscribers can upgrade their package, while new members can sign up to the combined offer now.
Recent highlights from Starzplay includes the Julia Roberts and Sean Penn-starring Gaslit, with upcoming titles including Shining Veil and Señorita 89.
Erick Bretas, director of digital products and paid channels of Globecast, said: “Starz is known for producing premium drama for international audiences on Starzplay. Its content delights global audiences and makes a profound cultural impact. It is an honour for us to offer Globoplay subscribers yet another possibility to combine high quality products with the convenience of being able to watch everything from the same place, without having to change apps.”
President of Starz International Networks, Superna Kalle said: “We are excited to forge this partnership with Globoplay, a leader in streaming, that will help strengthen Starzplay’s presence in Brazil and give subscribers even more access to our extensive offering of curated content.
“Globoplay shares our commitment to providing subscribers with exceptional content combined with a premium user experience and together we hope to strengthen our relationship with Brazilian viewers.”
