Films encompassed by the agreement include, among many others:

Shattered - now available and exclusively free to stream

An action thriller starring Academy Award Nominee John Malkovich ( Red ) and Frank Grillo ( Avengers: Endgame ), Shattered follows lonely tech millionaire Chris (Cameron Monaghan, Shameless ) who encounters charming, sexy Sky (Lily Krug, Every Breath You Take ), and passion grows between them. When he's injured, she quickly steps in as his nurse. But Sky's odd behavior makes Chris suspect that she has more sinister intentions, especially when Sky's roommate is found dead from mysterious causes.

Pursuit - exclusively free to stream beginning June 27

John Cusack ( Grosse Pointe Blank ) and Emile Hirsch ( Into the Wild ) star in this action thriller about a tough cop's hunt for an even tougher criminal. Detective Breslin crosses paths with Calloway (Hirsch), a ruthless hacker desperate to find his wife, who has been kidnapped by a drug cartel. When Calloway escapes police custody, Breslin joins forces with a no-nonsense female cop to reclaim his prisoner. But is Calloway's crime-boss father (Cusack) somehow involved in this explosive situation?

Wolf Hound - exclusively free to stream Fall 2022

Starring Trevor Donavan ( 90210 ), James Maslow ( Big Time Rush ), and Michael Wayne Foster ( Embattled ), and based on the real-life Nazi program KG 200, Wolf Hound chronicles the story of a Jewish-American pilot shot down behind enemy lines. With little more than his wits and a sidearm, he must outsmart a brilliant enemy, rescue his captured crew, and foil a plot that could change the course of the war.

The agreement encompasses titles not covered under Lionsgate's Pay One theatrical output agreement with Starz.
