MUMBAI: Netflix, US video-on-demand service provider, and Twentieth Century Fox Television Distribution, have signed a multi-year licensing agreement that will soon make a host of great TV series and films available for Netflix members to instantly watch in Latin America and Brazil.

All past seasons of 24, Prison Break and How I Met Your Mother will be available for viewing in July, as well as current and past seasons of Glee and Bones. Episodes of The X-Files and Arrested Development will be available starting January 2013.

In addition, Twentieth Century Fox classic films including Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, Wall Street and Office Space, will come to Netflix on 1 July, with more films and TV series to be added over the next few years.

"We are thrilled to be bringing such favorites as How I Met Your Mother and Glee to our members in Latin America and Brazil. Our partnership with Twentieth Century Fox continues to grow and benefit Netflix members around the world," said Netflix VP Content Acquisition Jason Ropell.
