YouTube To Release Its Next YouTube Red Feature Film VULTURE CLUB In Theaters
YouTube is wanting audiences to take its premium service seriously, and it looks like they're making the jump to theaters to further legitimize YouTube Red. Engadget reports YouTube is bringing its newest Susan Sarandon-led film Vulture Club to theaters, although details beyond that have yet to be released by the video website.
In the film, which is in post-production, Sarandon plays an ER nurse whose son is kidnapped by terrorists and ultimately abandoned by the government. Sarandon's character finds help in the most "unlikely of places," so I'm guessing someone does step in to save her son.
I'm not sure anything will really make me take YouTube Red seriously, much less subscribe, but it is interesting to see them snagging such a high profile talent to make a theater run. Perhaps a year down the road I'll be eating my words and we'll all have YouTube Red?
