Plex announced today that it has reached an agreement with Warner Bros. to make a collection of feature films available to Plex users for free. This means that you’ll soon be able to access a “package of feature film titles” from Warner Bros. via the Plex application on iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, and more.

Later this year, Plex users will gain access to a “package of library feature film titles from Warner Bros.” via the Plex app for free. The films will be supported with ads, but the partnership is the latest example of Plex’s evolving role in the media industry. Furthermore, all Plex users will have access to the films – not just Plex Pass subscribers.

In a statement, Keith Valory, CEO of Plex, said that the goal of this new deal with Warner Bros. is to address the ongoing onslaught of subscription services in the media industry:

“Plex has always been about solving new media challenges, and our mission is to tame the growing chaos in the media landscape,” Valory said.

“Licensing these movies from Warner Bros. enables us to offer more types of third-party content than any other platform and bring it all together in one beautiful solution. Premium ad-supported movies and shows deserve first-class treatment alongside other content that consumers enjoy daily, as opposed to being orphaned in yet another stand-alone app.”

The availability of Warner Bros. films through Plex joins existing content options such as TIDAL music streaming, TV, news, podcasts, and more. Details of the Warner Bros. partnership are unknown, such as film availability and release dates, but we should learn more later this year.
