STARZ and BritBox Launch New Bundle Offering
Today, STARZ and BritBox launched a complementary bundle that allows new customers the ability to access both digital platforms easily from a single subscription through the STARZ site. A first-of-its-kind for the platform, the offering provides customers with a seamless way to access the vast, premium libraries of both networks.
The launch coincides with the debut of new series from STARZ and BritBox, offering audiences access to STARZ’s extensive lineup of premium action, thriller, and female-driven programming alongside BritBox’s expertly curated selection of classic and contemporary British television.
“Partnerships have always been key for us as a complementary premium service, and we are excited to now offer bundles through our own retail platform,” said Alison Hoffman, President of STARZ Networks. “We believe this expanded offering adds value for adult audiences seeking prestige, high-quality premium programming and provides an incredibly seamless and low-friction consumer experience.”
“It’s a transformative time in the industry, but what audiences want remains the same: authentic, bold, exceptional storytelling,” said Robert Schildhouse, President of BritBox North America and General Manager of BritBox International. “BritBox is excited to launch its first-ever bundle with STARZ, allowing us to introduce the inimitable qualities of British TV to a new audience.”
The direct-to-consumer bundle is priced at $14.99/month – a 25 percent savings for both apps. This standalone offering is a first-of-its-kind for STARZ, and soon, STARZ subscribers will have the opportunity to curate a personalized bundle that aligns with their individual entertainment preferences.
Premiering today is the STARZ dark comedic drama series Sweetpea, starring Ella Purnell as a seemingly ordinary woman living a dangerous double life. Subscribers can also watch STARZ’s gripping new drama Three Women, starring Shailene Woodley and Betty Gilpin, and the highly anticipated Season 7B premiere of the time-traveling series Outlander, starring Sam Heughan and Caitríona Balfe, on November 22.
New series coming soon to BritBox include Passenger, a crime drama from the producers of Chernobyl starring BAFTA-winner Wunmi Mosaku premiering October 17, and Joan, starring Emmy nominee Sophie Turner in the role of Joan Hannington, in a drama inspired by the life of the UK’s most notorious jewel thief, premiering December 5.
