Popcornflix Expands Documentary Library

NEW YORK, July 23, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Popcornflix™, the free movie and TV streaming app, today announced the addition of acclaimed programs to its documentary library. The newly available content has previously aired on National Geographic, BBC, Discovery, Channel 4 and other networks known for providing high quality, unscripted content.

Among the newly available shows and films are: wildlife and travel programs, including Untamed with Davey Hughes, a reality adventure series that takes the viewer on hunting expeditions through remote and abandoned parts of the globe and the Wildest series, which provides an educational journey though the flora and fauna of the seven continents; adrenaline-packed looks into the daily duties of law enforcement and elite military units in Road Cops and Commandos; revealing portraits of celebrity families (Family Confidential with Miranda Kerr and Hugh Jackman); and in-depth documentaries uncovering untold stories of history (War Horse: The Real Story and Operation Valkyrie).  

This new programing will be available on Popcornflix through agreements with TVF International and Looking Glass International, leading global documentary distribution companies. Popcornflix is available on Roku, Sony PlayStation PS3 and PS4, Xbox One, Xbox 360, the web, mobile devices and more.

"With the success of our National Geographic genre, we were eager to bring our audience even more exciting documentaries," said David Fannon, Executive Vice President at Popcornflix. "There is something universally appealing about an unfiltered look into the world around us, introducing us to places and people outside of our day-to-day experience."
