“We are very excited to announce Google Play as our newest partner for Disney Movies Anywhere,” Janice Marinelli, president, Disney Studio In-Home and Digital Distribution and Disney/ABC Content Distribution, said. “We set out to create an exceptional Disney experience that made owning digital movies easy and fun, and with Google Play now on board following our successful launch in February, we are able to deliver unprecedented availability and ease for consumers across a broad range of mobile devices.”
“We want to make it easy for movie fans to enjoy all of their past and future digital purchases across all of their devices. Our partnership with Disney now gives Google Play users the ability to conveniently watch all of their Disney, Marvel and Pixar digital movies that have been purchased from any Disney Movies Anywhere participating retailer,” Jonathan Zepp, head of Google Play Movies Partnerships, said.
In Disney Movies Anywhere, consumers can explore Disney’s library of more than 400 active digital titles from Disney, Pixar and Marvel; preview upcoming offerings and enjoy hours of free new and exclusive short-form content; and discover curated content based on their individual preferences.
