Netflix S Tudum Is A Global Fan Event For New Series Movies

Netflix’s first Tudum event will be held September 25. Per the company, Tudum will feature Netflix’s biggest stars and creators from around the world, representing over 70 series, films and specials. Guests will join the virtual stage for a day full of exclusives and first-looks. The live stream will begin at 9 a.m. PT and will be broadcast across Netflix’s YouTube channels worldwide, in addition to Twitter and Twitch. There will also be pre-shows spotlighting Korean and Indian series and films, along with anime content that will kick-off at 5 a.m. PT on specific channels. The day’s events will include new trailers and clips, interactive panels, and conversations with the creators and stars from Netflix.

Netflix’s decision to host its own convention marks a continued trend of entertainment companies skirting shared industry events, like Comic-Con, in favor of creating fan-festivals all their own. WarnerMedia held its first DC FanDome event last year, where it teased news about a variety of its upcoming superhero films and shows, while Disney announced a myriad of “Star Wars” projects and other major titles during its Investor Day event last December. Disney also has the D23 Expo, a biannual event for official fan club members that doubles as a day of trailer debuts and high-profile programming announcements.
