Paramount’s parent company plans to reshape the streaming media platform |
1905 movie news After the success of Disney’s streaming platform Disney+, another Hollywood giant is about to step into the streaming battlefield. It is understood that Paramount’s parent company ViacomCBS plans to reshape its streaming media platform "CBS All Access" and rename it "Paramount+" early next year. This is another streaming platform after Disney+, Warner’s HBO Max, and Universal’s Peacock.
, as Paramount’s most well-known film, "The Godfather" will become the first important program of the Paramount streaming platform. According to foreign media reports, there are a total of 10 episodes of the documentary behind the scenes of the "Godfather" movie "The Offer". The story focuses on the experience of one of the producers of "The Godfather", Albert S. Lardy, which has never been made public during the shooting, including his The story between director Francis Ford Coppola, producer Robert Evans and screenwriter Mario Puzo. In addition, the restart version of the TV series "The Game" and the derivative documentary "True Criminal Minds" from "Criminal Minds" will also land on this brand new platform.
In addition, in order to increase the competitiveness of Paramount+, ViacomCBS will significantly expand its content library. ViacomCBS’s TV stations: BET, Comedy Central, MTV, Nickelodeon, will all be incorporated into the Paramount+ framework. There is no doubt that the streaming media platform has ushered in an era of resource integration after stepping out of their own battles. For the audience, the integrated Paramount+ is undoubtedly the best choice, because the video content that used to require two or more accounts to watch, now only needs one account to watch. However, for the producers, an overly large and bloated platform and their different areas of expertise will inevitably cause management difficulties.
CBS All Access, which was launched in 2014, is the first batch of streaming media platforms in the United States. It has launched dramas such as "War of the Proud" and "Star Trek: Discovery". As of June this year, there were 16.2 million subscribers. Currently, Paramount is developing American dramas such as "Yellowstone", "Transformers" and so on. After Paramount+ goes online, it will still have a huge appeal.
