CNN
Universal Pictures and Peacock announced that new films from the studio will head exclusively to NBCUniversal's nascent streaming service after they play in theaters.
Under a new licensing agreement, which starts with the 2022 theatrical slate, Universal's movies will be available exclusively on Peacock no later than four months after they debut in theaters. The films will then play for four months exclusively on the service before heading to other services and then eventually landing back on Peacock. You can still buy or rent the film away from streaming, as usual.Senate Democrats have confirmed some of President Joe Biden’s picks for the federal bench this week in the face of President-elect Donald Trump’s calls for a total GOP blockade of judicial nominations – in part because several Republicans involved with the Trump transition process have been missing votes.
