Comcast today announced the launch of Xfinity FreePass Latino, a two

7,000 hours of content, including films, TV series, and music videos in
Spanish and English from networks like STARZ, Cine Sony Television,

Xfinity FreePass Latino takes place now through October 9 and will be
available at no additional cost to all Xfinity TV customers. The content
can be accessed on Xfinity On Demand, Xfinity.com/Latino
and on the Xfinity TV app and portal.

The bicultural collection features:

  • Hundreds of recent and classic films from Cinema Dinamita, Cine
    Latino, Cine Mexicano, and DePelicula.
  • High profile titles like the highest-grossing Spanish-language
    film of all time, Instructions Not Included, as well as Ladrones,
    starring telenovela superstars Fernando Colunga and Eduardo Yañez, and
    Casa de Mi Padre
    , featuring Gael Garcia Bernal and Will Ferrell.
  • Kids programming including La Isla del Faro and Los
    Happets
    from Vme Kids.
  • Early access to the premieres of new series before they air
    live, including NBC Universo’s The Riveras, a celeb-reality
    series, and Azteca America’s Rabia, a drama series produced in
    Spain.
  • Catch up on cult favorites like From Dusk Till Dawn: The
    Series
    , from El Rey based on the movie by network founder, Robert
    Rodriguez, and Discovery en Español’s original series Texas Trocas,
    an original series from Discovery en Español that follows the Mendez
    family as they build their custom truck building empire.
  • Music videos and original music programming from Music Choice
    featuring the hottest Latino artists including Jencarlos Canela, Sofia
    Carson, Gente de Zona, Zion and Lennox, and Chino y Nacho.

“We have more content than ever as part of this promotion and are hoping
to broaden the appeal of FreePass Latino to even more bicultural and
multigenerational Latino families,” said Javier Garcia, Senior Vice
President and General Manager, Multicultural Services for Comcast Cable.
“We have it all, from an unprecedented bicultural collection of the
movie content they want most and more entertainment choices in their
language of preference to early access to premieres of TV shows before
they air live and the latest blockbusters available in Spanish through
the SAP feed.”

During FreePass Latino, Comcast’s Xfinity X1 platform will provide
Latino customers an immersive bicultural viewing experience complete
with an easy to navigate programming guide in their language of choice,
one touch access to turn the SAP feed on or off and the ability to speak
into the Voice Remote Control, which now recognizes commands in both
English and Spanish. These features empower Comcast’s Latino customers
to easily find and discover more of the programming that matters to
them, including thousands of movies of TV episodes from STARZ, STARZ
ENCORE, and STARZ ENCORE ESPAÑOL
as well as rental titles from Pantelion
Films
available for the first time at no additional cost during
FreePass Latino.

The participation by STARZ will allow customers to experience all of its
English and Spanish language programming for free during the two-week
event, while offering ungated access to STARZ, STARZ ENCORE, and STARZ
ENCORE ESPAÑOL’s on demand features. High profile movies in Spanish from
STARZ include Ant-Man, Spider-Man 3, Avengers: Age of Ultron, The
Good Dinosaur,
and Inside Out. Additionally, complete seasons
are available of the popular STARZ Original series “Power” and
“Black Sails,” as well as “Ash vs Evil Dead” leading up to its season 2
premiere on October 2, 2016.
