bt_visionTwo new deals will give BT  Vision customers 3D films at home for the first time.

BT has entered into an agreement with NBC Universal for the UK video-on-demand rights to all the 3D movie titles the studio will release over the next 12 months. BT will also show StreetDance, the first British movie to be shot in 3D, featuring Diversity, winners of Britain’s Got Talent 2009, and Flawless BGT finalist and Street Dance Champions.

Two titles already lined up for BT customers are Step Up 3D, set in New York, which customers can see from November 29, and the animated Despicable Me, featuring the voices of Steve Carell and Russell Brand, which will be available on BT Vision from March 14 next year.

BT Vision will bring viewers 3D films from across range of genres – from family favourites to action blockbusters.

Marc Watson, chief executive of BT Vision, said: “We already have an extensive catalogue of more than 500 movies in the UK courtesy of our long-term deals with major Hollywood studios and independents like Vertigo. Now Vision viewers can experience films at home in fantastic 3D, thanks to these new deals. This is just the start of 3D on Vision – viewers can expect to hear much more from us in the coming months.”
