The direct-to-consumer streaming app STARZPLAY has launched in Brazil, France, Germany, Mexico and the U.K., with plans to launch in an additional 20 countries in 2020.

Starz has picked up six new titles, including the documentary This Changes Everything from executive producer Geena Davis and the series In the Long Run, created by and featuring Idris Elba. 

Revenues rose at Lionsgate to $963.6 million in the first quarter, driven in part by gains at Starz.

StarzPlay, the international premium streaming service launched by Starz, is now available across Europe and Latin America via the Apple TV app and Samsung Smart TVs.

Chris Albrecht, the CEO of Starz, is stepping down from the company as of next month.

The president and CEO talks about working with showrunners, taking chances on new talent, growing the app and international expansion.

Starz has named Darren Nielson and Jeff Cooke to the international digital networks team.

Lionsgate has inked an expanded licensing agreement with the Australian streaming service Stan.

Lionsgate delivered a second-quarter profit of $15.5 million, as compared with the year-ago loss of $17.5 million, on revenues of $940.8 million.

Carmi Zlotnik, the president of programming at Starz, talks to World Screen Newsflash’s Anna Carugati about working with A-list creative talent, the value of returning series, the channel's involvement with American Gods and what’s up next.
