Latest Netflix News is Great News for Aspiring Actors

Date:

Netflix is on track to have over 1,000 original shows released in 2018, which is great news for the film industry.

Netflix has announced a major plan to create a massive libary of original programming. Now it appears as the streaming platform is on track to surpass 700 original TV shows, movies, documentaries and other Netflix productions. In a recent talk given by Ted Sanders, the company’s chief content officer said the company will reach 1,00 shows by the end of 2018.

The company counts original programming as either TV shows made by the platform, such as Georgia-filmed Stranger Things or shows licensed from other studios such as Orange is the New Black. The push for original content became more difficult to acquire and other companies such as Disney started creating their own streaming platform. Netflix says that more than 90% of Netflix subscribers watch original programming regularly and that there’s still 470 shows that are set to be released from now until the end of 2018.

What does this mean for the entertainment industry? This is great news for those working in the film industry. The more productions equates to more jobs in the film industry and more opportunities for people to get their foot in the movie and TV business.
