The announcement is notable in particular as Netflix continues to make live events a major part of its service. Previously, that has included comedy specials from Chris Rock and John Mulaney, and last year, the company became a player in live sports. So far, it has signed broadcast deals with the NFL and WWE and will also livestream boxing and competitive eating.
The company has also made moves to diversify its offerings beyond streaming by adding games to its catalog and with the planned launch of immersive entertainment and retail experiences next year.
