“High-quality kids content is a cornerstone of Viaplay’s unique offering, and this latest agreement with NBC Universal means that our younger viewers can experience even more fantastic entertainment featuring their favorite characters,” Filippa Wallestam, NENT Group chief content officer, said in a statement. “We look forward to bringing the best of Hollywood to audiences of all ages across the Nordic region for years to come.”
