LOS ANGELES, Jan. 11, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Wilde, a womxn-focused streaming platform, announced today the launch of its new subscriber and advertising-supported video-on-demand (SVOD, AVOD) service. With over 230+ titles of highly curated movies and TV Shows premiering at launch, Wilde is the first and only streaming platform featuring 100% womxn-led content that strives to support the marginalized female voice and narrative.
The movies and shows on Wilde highlight diverse stories spanning the vast spectrum of lived experiences of a wide range of womxn from different backgrounds. Film luminaries such as Ava duVernay, Lena Dunham, Katie Holmes as well as the iconic Jane Fonda's 80's workouts are all found on Wilde. Additionally, important documentaries that spark conversations about the intersectionality of womxnhood include: 'Krows Transformation' and 'Hope Village', as well as films starring Constance Wu, Jessica Biel, Moses Ingram, Tatyana Ali, Loretta Devine, Michelle Williams, Susan Sarandon, Wendi McLendon-Covey, Aubrey Plaza, June Diane Raphael, Casey Wilson, Alicia Silverstone and Angela Trimbur. The films presented on Wilde challenge and rebel against the status quo.
"Wilde aims to break the glass screen and strives not only to disrupt the rules, but to also create new ones by amplifying content that empowers the world we live in," says Emma Waldron, Founder of Wilde. "We matter. Our love matters, our stories matter, our triumphs and challenges matter. We wanted to create a space where we don't have to fight to be heard. It feels like a beautiful paradigm shift, taking back control of the narrative."
After years of feeling powerless over the image shaped around herself and womxn in media, Wilde founder Emma Waldron, a former model and Miss World Ireland, created an all-female team to create this platform that tells womxn's stories. Wilde is a place where multidimensionalism exists and is reflected within the offerings in an ad-supported free service that makes it accessible with 90% less ad load usually seen on linear TV. Subscribers can also curate custom playlists, host a watch party and discover new titles with Wilde's unique female-focused curation feature.
