But also from its partner channels including Comedy Central, MTV, Nickelodeon and Showtime.
Paramount+ will also offer originals, unpublished in France. Subscribers will be able to discover unexplored planets in Star Trek: Strange New World and the other series derived from its flagship SF franchise, fight alongside werewolves in the movie Teen Wolf, find Bryan Cranston in season 2 of Your Honor, see Sylvester Stallone as mob boss in Tulsa King and having a good time the duo Helen Mirren / Harrison Ford in 1923.
