Netflix’s Chief Content Officer Ted Sarandos commented,

“Netflix is proud to be able to offer the unmatched mix of award-winning, independent and commercially successful films Miramax is known for.

“Miramax films are already favorites of Netflix members in the U.S. and Latin America and we’re sure they’ll be incredibly popular in the UK and Ireland as well.”

The financial arrangements of the deal have not been disclosed.

With this latest announcement, Netflix’s launch in the UK and Ireland is really taking shape.
