Amblin Partners by famous movie director Steven Spielberg has joined the entertainment outlet Netflix for several films every year. The production includes movie directors and producers of Amblin Entertainment and DreamWorks Pictures. Other productions such as Amblin Television, Reliance Entertainment, Alibaba Pictures, Entertainment One (eOne), and Universal Pictures are also involved. Amblin has helped produce several movies besides Spielberg’s, which includes “Green Book” and “1917.” Amblin and Netflix have also previously partnered in the movie “The Trial of the Chicago 7,” which it co-produced and sold to Netflix. When asked about his 2019 issue of being “unsupportive” of the streaming concept, Spielberg explained that a great story is the most important and everyone should have a ticket to great stories, whether on a small or big screen. In December, the beloved director is also set to release “West Side Story” with Disney’s 20th Century Studios.
