Overview
- The agreement grants Netflix subscribers in France access to all five TF1 broadcast channels and over 30,000 hours of TF1+ on-demand content starting summer 2026.
- Netflix co-CEO Greg Peters said the deal aims to boost daily engagement by attracting viewers with live sports, reality shows and hit dramas on the streaming service.
- TF1 Group CEO Rodolphe Belmer stated the partnership will expand the broadcaster’s reach and open new advertising revenue streams without cannibalizing its core audience.
- Neither company has revealed how subscription and ad revenues will be shared or whether Netflix paid an upfront fee for TF1 content.
- Analysts see the France deal as a potential model for other European markets, but they say U.S. broadcasters are unlikely to follow due to entrenched pay-TV economics.
