It wasn’t that long ago that getting major names like Will Smith on board to make movies for a streaming service, even one as big as Netflix, was the exception, not the rule.
Today it’s standard operating procedure to see major names in Netflix movies.
Mark Wahlberg made one of Netflix’s most popular movies to date with Spenser: Confidential, and Kevin Hart released Fatherhood late last year.
Not only that, some have found a home on the service, making multiple movies for streaming.
