(Reuters) – Netflix Inc will launch its movie and TV streaming service in Japan in the fall of 2015, a source with knowledge of the matter said on Wednesday.
The move is part of the U.S.-based streaming pioneer’s global expansion. The company said last month it would move into about 150 new markets within two years.
A Netflix spokesman had no comment.
