Netflix offers FREE access to select original movies, shows without subscription

By Akash Kumar Last updated

Yes, you heard that right. Online video streaming service Netflix is offering free access to a few movies and original series, including When They See Us, Stranger Things, Love Is Blind, Murder Mystery, Élite, Boss Baby: Back in Business, Bird Box, The Two Popes, and Grace and Frankie.

Even if you are not a Netflix subscriber, you’ll be able to watch the full movie with all language options, though only the first episode of the first season is available for TV shows.

“We’re looking at different marketing promotions to attract new members and give them a great Netflix experience,” a Netflix spokesperson told TechCrunch in a statement.

This isn’t the first time that the streaming giant has tried offering free access to its originals in order to attract users to sign up.

Last year, it offered the first episode of Bard of Blood in India and Élite season 2 in parts of Latin America for free.
