Deaf and hard-of-hearing viewers have received a significant upgrade on Prime Video.
Prime Video is enhancing its sign language accessibility, adding 18 additional Prime Original titles starting today. This brings the total to over 20 titles that support both American Sign Language (ASL) and British Sign Language (BSL). The feature is available worldwide on all devices compatible with Prime Video.
How sign language support works on Prime Video
Prime Video now offers sign language interpretation for more than 20 movies and series, including popular selections like Red, White, and Royal Blue and The Idea of You.
When viewing a supported title, an interpreter appears on-screen to convey not only dialogue but also tone and emotion through facial expressions and body language, providing a more immersive experience compared to regular captions.
These interpretations have been developed in partnership with Deaf interpreters and directors of artistic sign language (DASLs) to ensure the performances are both natural and accurate.
Locating signed content is simple. Viewers can navigate directly to the dedicated sign language page (primevideo.com/signlanguage) or search for titles using terms like “ASL,” “BSL,” or “Sign Language.” In the US, viewers can also explore the “Accessible Movies and TV” section for signed titles.

Samsung is finally adding long-requested Google Cast support to its older TVs. This much-anticipated feature will not only be available on the new models but also for select 2023 and 2024 models and may extend to Smart Monitors and other freshly launched Tizen OS devices.
The rollout began subtly when a Reddit user shared a screenshot of their S90D OLED TV receiving a significant One UI Tizen update that includes Google Cast. This is a game changer for Samsung users who have long sought an easier way to stream content from their Android devices. Previously, casting to Samsung TVs was primarily limited to Galaxy devices via Samsung’s Smart View feature. Now, users of Android smartphones, tablets, ChromeOS devices, or even the Google Chrome browser can easily cast images, music, and videos directly to compatible Samsung TVs.
I just watched The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, and here’s why it surpasses the first Mario movie.
Let’s-a-go! Mario is back and reaching new heights.
Having grown up playing the Nintendo Wii, the Super Mario Galaxy video games were among my all-time favorites, making a blockbuster film adaptation a dream come true. I had high expectations for The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, and I can confidently say this film was crafted with the fans in mind. Set after Bowser's defeat (Jack Black) in The Super Mario Bros. Movie, this sequel follows Mario (Chris Pratt), Luigi (Charlie Day), Peach (Anya Taylor-Joy), and Toad (Keegan-Michael Key) as they journey through the cosmos to rescue Princess Rosalina (Brie Larson) from Bowser Jr. (Benny Safdie).
While The Super Mario Bros. Movie was far from flawless, it delivered an entertaining and faithful depiction of some of gaming’s most iconic heroes from Nintendo. With the world and characters established, The Super Mario Galaxy Movie soars to new heights as Mario and his companions reach for the stars in a captivating adventure filled with action, humor, heart, and Easter eggs for gamers to enjoy.
