Fandango (streaming service)

Fandango (formerly known as Vudu and Fandango at Home, and alternatively known as Fandango Stream) is an American digital video store and streaming service owned by Fandango Media, a joint-venture between Versant and Warner Bros. Discovery. The company offers transactional video on demand rentals and digital purchases of films, as well as integration with digital locker services for streaming digital copies of films purchased as home video at retail. When Vudu was founded in 2004, the company initially focused developing a digital media player known as the Vudu Box. In 2010, Vudu began to abandon its hardware business and focused on integrating its service and associated app platform into third-party devices such as televisions and Blu-ray Disc players. The company has since offered its services online, via mobile apps, and on devices such as digital media players and smart TVs. In 2010, Vudu was sold to Walmart. In 2020, Fandango Media acquired Vudu for an undisclosed amount. While initially maintaining the Vudu name due to brand recognition, Fandango Media nevertheless rebranded the service under the Fandango brand in 2024. In 2026, the "at Home" was dropped from the name with the service rebranding simply as Fandango.
