Today at Fullscreen’s New York offices, several announcements were made by executives from the new social-first SVOD service (launching tomorrow, Tuesday April 26th) incuding plans to partner with best-selling author Bret Easton Ellis for his directorial debut of new series, “The Deleted.” This original thriller follows the disappearance of three seemingly unconnected people from Los Angeles which triggers a collective paranoia among a group of twenty-somethings who all have something in common … all had escaped from a cult years earlier.
George Strompolos, Fullscreen’s Founder & CEO, opened up the presentation by proclaiming Fullscreen as the first streaming service to target a fresh, young generation that is eager for social engagement and daily offerings. Andy Forssell, Fullscreen’s COO, revealed the new app’s look and feel, and shared how users can create and send GIFs from Fullscreen shows via their social media platforms.
Some of the talented attending included YouTube stars whose original content premieres on Fullscreen tomorrow: Grace Helbig (“Electra Woman & Dyna Girl”), Alexis G. Zall (“Zall Good with Alexis G. Zall”), and Twaimz (“Party in the Back”).
