Stephen van Rooyen, exec VP and CEO U.K. and Europe Sky, said: “Our new partnership with NBCUniversal brings an impressive range of family favorites from DreamWorks Animation to Sky and Now TV customers. Adding DreamWorks’ loveable stories of dreams, journeys and heroes alongside our originals and our partner content means customers can access the content they love, all in one place – easy.
