Hi Pablo Ezequiel Romero,

Can you confirm you are trying to share the video via Facebook? The share feature appears to work for Twitter and email.

- - -

I cannot test share for Facebook since I do not have a Facebook account. This is the link for share via Facebook.

For Twitter:
Jane Got a Gun (2016) - imdb.com/title/tt2140037/?ref_=ext_shr_tw_vi#lb-vi580957465
This link works and redirects to:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2140037/?ref_=ext_shr_tw_vi#lb-vi580957465

For email:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2140037/?ref_=ext_shr_eml_vi#lb-vi580957465
This link works.

The problem is happening when you try to share a trailer. Basically if you copy a link from iOS app (I tested in last version) you will get a URL like the one I pasted. That trailer corresponds to Jane Got a Gun. Then if you use App Extension feature with some third party app, IMDB is sharing the URL with the ) character at then end and that breaks the sharing process.

You can see the ) character in the URL. That will break some third party apps. I'm an iOS developer and I'm working on enabling my app to receive trailers from IMDB, but the ) at the end breaks the process.
