Netflix makes a move to the big screen
Our favourite at-home entertainment providers – Netflix – are planning to make a move to cinemas! According to a report by the Los Angeles Times, the streaming giant has been looking into starting its own theatre chain, enabling movie buffs the opportunity to experience Netflix Originals on the big screen. Not only would the prospect of Netflix-owned theatres bring the streaming giant closer to becoming the world’s biggest media company, it would also give it the perfect platform to showcase its films for awards consideration. Many believe the Netflix original movie ‘Mudbound’, which was nominated for four Oscars, winning none, would have had more success if it had been given a cinema release.
