An agreement with NBCU sees titles such as The Girl on the Train, 8 Mile, the 1984 version of Dune and the Halloween and Back to the Future franchises, with Despicable Me, Jurassic Park, The Mummy and Fast & Furious films coming soon.

From Sony comes As Good As it Gets, The Whole Nine Yards, Salt, S.W.A.T. and XxX, with 21 Jump Street, Hancock, Step Brothers and Fury joining a later date.

The WBD deal gives Tubi features including Assasins, Demolition Man, Constantine and The Blade series, with Final Destination, American History X, Central Intelligence and Cloud Atlas soon to be added.

The deals closely follow several recent agreements for BBC dramedy Boarders, ITV’s dead Hot and Fremantle-sold Big Mood for Tubi in Canada. The Daniel Taylor Lawrence-penned Boarders launched on March 8, while comedy Big Mood debuts in April and comedy-thriller series Dead Hot joins on unconfirmed date this year.

“Audiences have become increasingly sophisticated in their expectations around the content they consume on streaming services,” said David Salmon, Executive Vice President and Managing Director, International, at Tubi.

“We are thrilled to be able to add even more blockbuster content for our users to enjoy in Canada. We know users are looking for choice, personalization, and great value, and we believe Tubi is market-leading in all three. These content deals, with our amazing studio partners, allow us to continue to delight our fast-growing Canadian user base.”
