Pierce Brosnan’s ‘Survivor’ Premieres for Free With Hoopla App

Streaming app Hoopla is bringing first-run VOD movies to library patrons of for free, with choices like the brand-new Pierce Brosnan-Milla Jovovich actioner “Survivor” and recent day-and-date VOD release “Welcome to Me,” starring Kristen Wiig.

Hoopla Digital allows patrons of dozens of libraries across the country access to hundreds of free movies, mostly library titles such as Quentin Tarantino’s “Django Unchained,” “Tracks” and “The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby” as well as TV shows such as “Marco Polo” and numerous childrens’ programs.

The service also offers music and ebooks. Libraries pay Hoopla a fee for each time a library patron streams a title, while the users can stream on any device, free of charge, for up to three days.

“Survivor” is also opening in a small number of theaters — just in case moviegoers don’t happen to have a library car.
