Move over, Netflix: Amazon Prime Video is rolling out its own social viewing experience in the US. Watch Party lets Prime members host and participate in a virtual movie night—at no additional cost.
Invite up to 100 of your closest family and friends—all of whom must have a Prime membership or Prime Video subscription and be based in the US—to catch up on episodes of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel or Upload (pictured), or settle in for films like Late Night and The Big Sick.
Choose from thousands of streaming titles, including The Boys, Captain America: The First Avenger, Knives Out, Hanna, I Am Not Your Negro, Rocketman, and other free-with-Prime content. (Note: Films and TV shows available for rent or purchase are not compatible.) Click the Watch Party icon to share the link with friends, then sit back, relax, and don’t worry about anyone stealing your popcorn.
