After Chicken Soup for the Soul Entertainment liquidated its assets in July 2024, Popcornflix was quietly sold off before the Chapter 7 process. The new owner, a trust tied to investor David Nagelberg, relaunched both the website and apps in early 2025 (lowpass.cc).
According to LinkedIn, Popcornflix “is back online after being quietly sold before [the bankruptcy]… Now owned by a trust linked to investor David Nagelberg and supported by Future Today” (linkedin.com).
The official site, popcornflix.com, is currently live and streaming full-length HD movies and TV shows for free (popcornflix.com).
Reports from users on platforms like Reddit note that the service works, especially on iOS, and curiously—with no ads .
Feature | Details |
---|---|
Website & Apps | Fully operational via official domain and mobile platforms |
Ads | Many users report ad-free experience so far |
Content Updates | Minimal to no recent updates on the library |
Platforms | Web, iOS (including iPhone/iPad), Roku, etc. |
The transition is still fresh—content hasn’t seen regular updating yet.
The new operation might be supported by Future Today, possibly leading to future changes in ad and content strategy (linkedin.com).
Popcornflix has indeed returned in 2025—fully functional and free to use, though it’s operating with limited content updates and currently appears ad-free.
