Facebook  will begin selling video ads later this week reports the WSJ. The ads will play automatically in users news feeds as Facebook targets a share of the $66.4 billion that advertisers are expected to spend on US television this year.

One of the first ads to be played will be a short tease made specifically for Facebook for Lions Gate Entertainment Corp’s upcoming film Divergent, according to the newspaper.
