Man living inside billboard above Los Angeles' Sunset Strip for Netflix movie promotion

A man will be living inside a billboard above the Sunset Strip in West Hollywood as part of a Netflix movie promotion over the weekend. 

The furnished billboard, which sits above Sunset Boulevard near Selma Avenue, is part of the campaign for the upcoming "The Last House" film, which releases on Friday, according to Netflix's website. The performance begins Thursday and lasts through Saturday.

Aerial footage above the billboard showed the performer inside the furnished living room that was built 30 feet above the street. Netflix officials said that the man would be interacting with people as they passed by the area with a whiteboard. 

The room appeared to have a lounge chair, a table and some books, among other typical household items. Each of the windows was adorned with curtains and some plants.
