Twitter is planning to introduce targeted movie adverts, it has been announced.
The social media platform will target users with specific adverts based on their posts, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Users who post about Guardians of the Galaxy or one of its characters, for example, will be targeted with adverts for Marvel films.
The system will not only measure engagement with film names, but also genres and movies in general.
Twitter global head of research Jeffrey Graham believes that the social media platform is a "major influence on movie choice".

Twitter will begin testing movie targeted ads in the coming months.
