The streaming service has full rights for two years. After this, these short parts may be combined into a large whole, for example to make a long feature film. From that moment on, the rights end up in the hands of the creators, who can then redistribute their films and series.
Antoine Fuqua, the director of Training Day, will make a two and a half hour drama series, which will be shown in short pieces at Quibi. Stephan James portrays a veteran of the Iraq war who comes face to face with the police in New Orleans. Fuqua commented on the original concept: “The streaming service finances a film or TV series for you, and after a few years you own the film rights. That is really fantastic. "
Quibi, which is an abbreviation for quick bites, will offer two subscription types at the launch in April 2020. One for around 5 euros per month with advertising, the other for 8 euros per month without advertising. The initiators have 2 billion dollars invested in content and at the launch, Quibi will offer around 7,000 videos. When Quibi will become available in Europe is not yet known.
