Move over Netflix, Chick-fil-A is allegedly coming for your brand. And the internet can't stop talking about it.
The chain is reportedly "moving aggressively" into the entertainment space, working to launch a slate of originals to run on its very own streaming platform, Deadline reported.
Chick-fil-A is currently in talks with major production companies, including studios, "to create family-friendly shows, particularly in the unscripted space," according to Deadline. They also are planning to license and acquire content in the near future, Deadline reported.
Multiple outlets have cited Deadline's report, with the news eventually making its way on social media platforms like X, where users have taken the opportunity to poke fun at the possibility of Chick-fil-A following through with the rumored venture.
The conversation on the platform has only just started, with users sharing reactions and creating memes about the rumor.
USA TODAY has reached out to Chick-fil-A for comment.
