Comcast Corp. is promoting its Fandango Media LLC movie-ticketing service through its Xfinity platform which features voice search.
Starting with Universal Pictures and Amblin Entertainment Inc.'s "Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom," Xfinity X1 customers can say "Get tickets" into their X1 voice remote to search more than 30,000 theatrical screens in the U.S., according to a May 30 news release.
The companies expect to extend this feature to additional new releases throughout the year. "Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom" is set for release in theaters June 22.
Fandango is part of the Universal Filmed Entertainment Group, which is a unit of NBCUniversal Media LLC.
