Hollywood NFTs Done Right: Simon Fuller Releases Major Musical Film Exclusively on OP3N Web3 Chat "Super App"

In Peter's last episode, he discussed an example of what’s wrong in the NFT world from the creative community’s perspective - specifically, OpenSea’s prioritization of buyers and sellers over the Creators that built the value of its marketplace in the first place. But in this episode, Peter points to a major Hollywood example of what’s being done “right” and showcases the transformational possibilities uniquely enabled by Web3 and token-gated "digital tickets" (just don't call them "NFTs"!).

Specifically, today March 15th, 2023, token-gated tickets go on sale exclusively on Web3 “chat Super App” OP3N to American Idol creator Simon Fuller’s new motion picture musical titled “The Musical: Welcome To The Night Of Your Life!,” which features his international pop super group Now United. Now United’s rabid fans – significant numbers of whom live in Brazil - will be able to choose amongst three tiers of tickets, each of which unlocks different levels of additional value and experiences. Those fans will then exclusively access the film, soundtrack, and additional benefits exclusively on OP3N.

This is a big deal for the entertainment world of film, television and music for several reasons, which Peter lays out.
