Freeform movie schedule for April 2020 has themed weekends to promote social distancing
The Freeform movie schedule for April 2020 reveals four brand new themed weekends as part of their #StayTheFFHome campaign to promote social distancing.
Freeform is a favorite destination when it comes to movie marathon events like the 31 Days of Christmas and the 31 Nights of Halloween. Now, to help encourage social distancing as part of their #StayTheFFHome campaign, a new Freeform movie schedule for April 2020 reveals four curated movie marathon weekends—and yes, they have themes to get excited about!
The movie marathon weekends are part of a larger multi-platform effort aimed at young adults to promote social distancing and staying at home. Freeform hopes that through these efforts they can “distract, educate and entertain fans while creating a sense of communal viewing.” Anchoring the campaign is their original comedy series Everything’s Gonna Be Okay, which will be available to stream on the Freeform App and at the network’s website (no sign-in required) starting Friday, April 3.
