Amazon owns IMDb and in 2019 it launched a free streaming service under the IMDb banner in the US. Ever since, rumors have persisted about Amazon planning to expand IMDb TV internationally.
As of this week, IMDb TV is available in the UK. Amazon did not comment on its plans for other countries in Europe.
- "IMDb TV has created a free-to-consumer destination by combining a hybrid of exclusive Originals from Amazon Studios and highly sought-after movies and television," said Lauren Anderson and Ryan Pirozzi, co-heads of content and programming, IMDb TV. "Today’s UK launch marks a major step in our mission to deliver customers widely appealing content and globally relevant storytelling, through a personalised, free streaming experience."
