Paramount also announced that from 2024, all its feature films will be moved to the streaming services after their theatrical runs.
Some of the top blockbusters arriving include Top Gun: Maverick; The Lost City, starring Sandra Bullock and Channing Tatum, and the heavily delayed Mission: Impossible 7.
The company also announced that the third instalment of John Krasinski’s A Quiet Place is scheduled for 2025, following the huge success of the sequel in 2021.
The film is likely to see Krasinski’s wife Emily Blunt reprise her role as a mother desperate to protect her family as blind creatures with extremely sensitive hearing run rampage.
The announcement means that Paramount+ will be the newest competitor in the UK streaming space which includes the likes of Netflix, Amazon Prime Video and Disney+ - all of which have been slowly increasing prices.
Paramount+ is already available in the US and offers content such as Yellowstone spin-off 1883, starring Tim McGraw and Faith Hill, and upcoming series The Offer, about the making of The Godfather, starring Miles Teller, Juno Temple, Matthew Goode and
