Netflix’s Globo deal includes ‘I’m Still Here’ — but streaming rights depend on where you live

Netflix and Brazilian media company Globo have agreed their largest programming deal, licensing 18 films and shows for different markets. The package includes Walter Salles’ Oscar-winning ‘I’m Still Here’, but Netflix’s rights to that film cover Brazil only.

The agreement covers 14 films, three telenovelas and one series. Its other headline titles include ‘India – A Love Story’, which Netflix has licensed for the US and Latin America, and ‘Vitória’, for which it has global rights.

Which Globo titles are coming to Netflix?

‘Vitória’, directed by Andrucha Waddington and starring Fernanda Montenegro, has a different reach: Netflix acquired global rights. Seven seasons of the comedy ‘Vai Que Cola’ are covered for Brazil. Created by Leandro Soares, that series was directed by João Fonseca and Regis Faria.

Those territorial differences matter for viewers looking for a particular title. A Netflix subscriber outside Brazil should not expect this deal alone to make ‘I’m Still Here’ available locally, while the agreement for ‘Vitória’ extends worldwide. The package brings films, telenovelas and comedy together under one licensing agreement, but each title has its own rights footprint.

When will the Globo titles arrive?

The rollout schedule is unclear. Variety reported that titles would begin arriving in December 2026 and continue through mid-2027. Deadline said the titles would drop from mid-2027. The two accounts therefore do not establish a single start date for viewers awaiting the first releases.

Elisabetta Zenatti, Netflix Brazil’s vice president of content, called the agreement a possible first step in a longer partnership. Globo rights director Pedro Garcia said combining Globo’s productions with Netflix’s global scale could bring Brazilian creativity to new audiences. Their comments describe the companies’ ambitions for the deal; the confirmed agreement is the 18-title package with the territory limits set out above.
