Netflix’s film boss says “there’s a group of filmmakers who still want theatrical” that they’ve “accepted we just won’t work with.” “One mistake I made when I first joined the company,” Dan Lin told the Times, “was that filmmakers always said to me, ‘Please tell me the truth.’ And when I told them the truth, they might not have wanted to hear it. So now I’m learning how to better read people. And if someone tells me they want to hear the truth, I tell it in a way that can be as productive as possible.” variety.com/2026/film/news/n…

As a Namibian filmmaker I am very sad to hear this. There is so much South African content of high quality you cannot purchase physically that was on Showmax. Not to mention we had our short films there aswell. 😡🫠💔💔💔💔 Africa needs a streaming platform.
BRANDS: Showmax Shutting Down MultiChoice's streamer is coming to an end. The company cites "comprehensive review of the company’s streaming activities" as the main reason to terminate the service for its consumers. #KgopoloReports
